| The best and most detailed book is Morrissey & Marr - The Severed Alliance by Johnny Rogan. Much of it focuses on the Smiths and not so much on Morrissey's solo career but if you're looking for an in-depth account of his childhood and life before the Smiths, then you need to read this book.
Saint Morrissey is ok but the author seemed a tad sycophantic to me. It's a decent enough read though, and has more on Morrissey as a solo artist. The Pat Reid book didn't tell me anything I didn't already know, I can't remember what its title was though. There is another Smiths book by Johnny Rogan called The Smiths - The Visual Documentary that is quite good with loads of photos, etc.
