There is a very decent sized preview of this book here:

http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=LbCIGEFLi_kC&pg=PA195&lpg=PA195&dq=standard+sidevalve+jaguar+engines&source=bl&ots=jkb6Rjt2zg&sig=aUXpQ8uarmVcd0DeNk3Vel6gtHw&hl=en&sa=X&ei=-vnjUcjoKabJ0QXnhICYAg&ved=0CF0Q6AEwBg#v=onepage&q=standard%20sidevalve%20jaguar%20engines&f=false

The author is Graham Robson and it makes very interesting reading.

If you get stuck into Graham Robson's book then you might also be interested in John Black's biography written by his son Nick.

It is titled Triumph & Tragedy which is sold by The Standard Motor Club.
