Before you buy anything, go buy the first volume of Lew Lipset's Baseball Card Encyclopedia. This is the volume that deals with 19th century and has a large chapter on N172s. Granted it was done more than 20 years ago and some of it is our of date, it is still one of the best sources of information on the set. Also, Joe G. and Jay Miller wrote a great article on the set in a past Old Cardboard issue. I'd try to get a copy of that (I can't recall the issue number), and subscribe to the magazine if you haven't already.
