Thanks to everyone who responded. Here's a summary of the
logic-programming interpreters available in Lisp:

  The most recent, and probably the most useful, interpreter
  (compiler, too!) is written in Common Lisp and will appear in
  Peter Norvik's forthcoming book on AI Programming. (I assume this
  is generally available from the author, NORVIG@teak.berkeley.edu). 
  One user reports that he gets a couple  thousand LIPS from compiled
  code using this. 
 
  The book by Campbell, "Implementations of Prolog", has a very simple
  interpreter.

  Abelson & Sussman's "Structure and Interpretation of Computer
  Programs" discusses logic programming in Scheme

  Charniak, McDermott, and Riesbeck "Artificial Intelligence
  Programming" has a logic programming interpreter.

  An implementation of Prolog in Scheme is now available from the
  University of Calgary. The interpreter may
  be obtained via anonymous ftp (cpsc.ucalgary.ca) in the directory
  pub/prolog1.1, or as a compressed tar file, pub/prolog11.tar.Z.
