On the back page of this months Guns Magazine is an article about S&W books. It mentions a few books, including the standard Catalogs. I have the third and forth editions, which I find very informative. The article mentions some others, including two I ordered. One is The K-Frame Revolver: The S&W Phenomenon, Volume 2 which I just received. I must say, this is one well thought out book, and very informative. It goes into all sorts of info that is not in the Standard Catalogs. The other one, which I haven't received yet, is The S&W 357 Magnum Phenomenon, which I hope is just as good. I myself love to read, and the more I read these kind of books,the more it will help me to make an informed decision when it comes time to buy the next Smith.
