Try a book written by Miles Anderson. He runs a nursery in the US. Its been reprinted a few times and has had a few slight title changes. Mines titled the Ultimate book on Cacti and succulents. I'm not sure what the latest title is.

Excellent book with good useful information and beautiful photos. I referred to it that many times that I;ve got to copies (different title).

There's a series of books about succulents by Rudolf Schulz and Attila Kapitani 'Succulents for the Garden' 'More Succulents for the Garden', 'Succulent Success', These books are good for us down under as they are written for our season zone and climate with pics of Oz and NZ gardens. Best for you would probably be "Care and Health" and maybe 'Propagation' :-)
