The advice from Robert that unwanted formats can also lurk on Reference pages
is also true. Delete any reference pages that are not used and search for
unwanted formats in the ones you retain.
His advice about the book file is also true. Save the book as MIF and search
for the offending format, then delete the appropriate code segment(s) from the
MIF text, and resave back to a standard book file. If an unwanted format shows
up again on a regenerate, that format is hiding somewhere in the files.
Cleaning the reference and master pages (by making the 'hidden' master page in
a single sided document blank) can be done on one file and imported across all
files in the book that use the same reference and master page(s). However,
additional 'extra' reference and master pages added to a particular file will
remain in existence. To get rid of these (assuming they are not needed), one
can cut the text from a file and paste it into a pristine template chapter file
of the type being used in the document. Applying all formats would seem like a
good idea after doing that.
Really well made templates have all the required stuff in the original template
(and leave out the undesirable stuff like a 'hidden' Left master page that is
not blank in the case of a single sided document) , so you can use the original
'raw' template from which the book was constructed to cut and paste into,
knowing that it has only what you want.
This assumes everyone has a repository of templates used by the various types
of book produced. I certainly advocate that.

Craig,
Thanks for the tips. I'll give them a try.
