I seem to recall that there is one called Son of Sherman, its quite in depth but also very pricey, hope this helps buddy.

Hi Peter you are dead right there is and it is one of the best books out there but it is out of my league at over £300, but thank for the input, I'll put it on my Christmas list and just hope :lol:
