Coin books for Shield Nickels and Three Cent Nickels

Can anyone suggest books on Shield Nickels and Three Cent Nickels? I am slowing down on my buying but as I have purchased coins for my type set and 7070 I have found that I like these two coin designs as well as some others. So since I don't have the money to invest in them I thought I would do some reading and research.

I already have the following books:

"The Shield Five Cent Series" A comprehensive Listing of know varieties by Edward L. Fletcher

"A Guide Book of Shield and Liberty Head Nickels" by QDB

The Official Red Book Of Shield & Liberty Head Nickels is a great book. You can find it on ebay cheap.

I have a copy of "The Complete Guide to Shield and Liberty Head Nickels" bye Peters & Mohon, DLRC Press.
It's a bit old-1995-but I find it useful.

There is another Shield Nickel book by Mohon? and ?. I don't recommend it. The Bowers books probably the best.

Not a book, but a great resource.
