cadads/42,
As you know Chuck Clawson's book is relatively new, and was the first book to really do an in-depth and accurate study of the 1911/1911A1. Also Clawson has a book on the Government Model, so one book cannot cover everything. While there are variations in the 1911/1911A1 pistol, these variations are minor when compared to the variations found in Lugers. There is no one book on the Lugers, but a good start would be the three books by Jan Still. Charles Kenyon's book "Lugers at Random" is also a good book to own. The old Luger books are nice to have and have a wealth of information in them, but some of the information is now outdated and may be confusing to a new collector. One thing to remember is that you can never have too many reference books, and are probably one of the better investments you can make if you are serious about collecting the Luger.
