From the readme file included in the superb release prepared by Mike Byrne:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
If just need to create a book for one personality, start crafty in the console
window, change to the personality that you want to create the book for - say
"krafty euwe" -- then use the same book creation command as regular crafty
"book create euwe.pgn 40 1 0" (if these options are your preference I like
making books where all it will the possibility to play every move that GM ever
played in a given position see Crafty readme for more details about book
creation).
One last thing, you have to mark every move played by the GM in the pgn file
with an "!" (exclamation point) for that move to marked as playable in the [gm
book].bin file.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
So I apparently can create my own opening book for the personality "Euwe"
(say). The only problem is that adding exclamation points, by hand, to any move
made by Euwe in about one thousand games, is not my idea of an agreeable
weekend. Do somebody know if there is a PGN tool to do that automatically?
