And craziest of all I can't even open up iBook Author's own ibook file and work from that.
That is totally normal. iBA can only open .iba files, nothing else.
Do you have a Time Machine or other sort of backup system?

Sep 8, 2014 4:17 AM in response to caseyladyby vinnyvg,When I re-opened iBooks the file was no longer there.
iBooks???? iBA files only open in iBooks Author. I have had one instance where this happened to me...... I never found the .iba file or any solution.
Since then I learned to duplicate books after each chapter or session and and drop it onto an external drive.
Have you tried the open recent option in iBooksAuthor? Unless you can find the iBA file.... your only option - sadly - is to start again.

After you. I don't think what that site claims to do is credible, and am concerned it may be bogus/dangerous.

Jul 29, 2016 9:09 AM in response to Tom Geweckeby ganesankaruppaiah,i have one solution.
download mac app: https://itunes.apple.com/in/app/unarchiver-extract-rar-zip/id1104175604?mt=12
drag and drop your .iBooks file,
this app extract your books data (image, video, etc)
then you will rework ibook author.

Jul 30, 2016 7:50 AM in response to caseyladyby manxman111,Hi I had same issue. If you previewed the book, you can open it again using ibooks (not ibooks author). It will have a copy in PDF format.

Jul 30, 2016 4:06 PM in response to caseyladyby Frank Lowney1,Why did you save your iBA project "many times?" The iBA app and all other macOS apps have autosave. The iBA app even supports "versions" which provides you with a way to access previous versions of a document a la Time Machine. Take a look at File > Revert to ... > Browse all versions
As for your missing *.iba file, there are macOS file recovery apps that may be able to recover it if you accidentally deleted it. Do you have any idea as to why it is no longer where you think it should be?
Without that *.iba file, your only option is to reconstruct it from the output files that you created as several here have suggested.
