The Book is "Savage & Stevens Arms: A Collectors History" by Jay Kimmel.
You can get it Gunbroker.com auctions or at gunshows. Probably the best source of info on vintage Savage/Stevens. Still IMO disappointingly so.. Basically a collection of old ads. But does have most basic model descriptions. If you're a Savage/Stevens collector, it's probably worth the money.
