The Book of the KIngs of Judah and Israel and The Vision of Isaiah

This post concerns two non-canonical books mentioned in the Bible.  They appear to have been known to the readers of 2 Chronicles.

"Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and his goodness, behold, they are written in the vision of Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, and in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.2 Chronicles 32:32

"And, behold, the acts of Asa, first and last, lo, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel."  2 Chronicles  16:11

"Now the rest of the acts of Jotham, and all his wars, and his ways, lo, they are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah."  2 Chronicles 27:7

It is believed by many that The Book of the Kings of Judah and Israel is what we now call 1 Kings and 2 Kings.
