Apart from method books, and biographical books, the best book I have ever read about flamenco is "The Flamencos of Cadiz Bay," by Gerald Howson. Exceptionally well written, and vastly entertaining as well, but more than all that it gives wonderful insight into the way of life that gave birth to the art. The author, an Englishman, spent a period of time in Cadiz learning to play flamenco guitar, and became a close friend of the great cantaor, Aurelio Selles. He relates his adventures and misadventures among the flamencos, and weaves in vignettes about the lives of people he encountered. Highly recommended.
