Luger books and references recommendations?

My thoughts follow what direction I actually took here.

Bought Lugers at Random first to see general information about variations. Then after determining what ERA you are most interested in begin buying Jan Still's excellent books on Lugers. Imperial Lugers for WWI, Weimar Lugers for period between WWI and WWII, and finally Third Reich Lugers for WWII.

Speciality Luger books like The ones on Krieghoffs and Swiss Lugers are needed if you branch out in those areas or are just interested in them.

The other book that I find really facinating and interesting is Costanzos World of Lugers-Proof markings. That one is very expensive ($200-$300) but very intriguing to me.
