There are two manuals in print, one by the Collodion Journal folks, last I 
heard in Rochester, NY -- Scully and Osterman.
The other by John Coffer, a less polished affair as I recall (it's around 
here somewhere but probably lost along with so much else), but I would 
assume at least as authoritative.
Don't ask me where to get them, though I imagine that Coffer is still at 
his NY "country house"...?
