Below you can find just some of the sources we used for the archive (or for our general knowledge for many of the main site articles). 

Many thanks especially go to Chic Sharp for his legendary spreadsheet and all the knowledgable bears who have contacted me with information.

Where available, I have provided Amazon links where you can purchase the books for some excellent online prices.  If you can't buy via Amazon; Ebay and your local library are your next best bets for sourcing further information which I may have missed.
