Hi Dick,
A nice book I used a long time ago, that might be pitched at just the
right level for your course, but that may be out of print is:
Donald L. Bentley and Kenneth L. Cooke, Linear Algebra with Differential
Equations. Holt, Rinehart and Winston, Inc., 1973.
At a little higher level, my favorite of all time is:
Morris W. Hirsch and Stephen Smale, Differential Equations, Dynamical
Systems, and Linear Algebra. Academic Press, 1997. ISBN: 0123495504.
Best wishes,
John

"I learned a lot in this Calculus for Kinetic Modeling course, because
everything I learned in Vietnam was reinforced. In Vietnam, I learned
without knowing what I was doing. I didn't understand what I was doing;
I just did it. Now, I know how to apply math. I really learned this
time. My grade is not the important part; the point is that I really
understand what I am doing."
