There is a hidden preference that can increase this number to up to 10 recently opened 
books. You can't set this via the GnuCash user interface, but probably via the defaults 
command line tool. For example to increase the list to 6 you could try:

defaults write --app Gnucash "/org/gnucash/history/maxfiles" 6
