Ah you are not late, I have not ordered the books! I will though now that I have the money and more information! I will check out all of the links! Thanks!
I'm glad that I wasn't too late with the book suggestions, and thinking about it.. I thought of a couple more that you might be interested in! Good luck with your research!
Brace, Andrew. "The Ultimate Rottweiler", Howell Books, 1995. I almost picked up a copy of this book while at a pet store once, but there was too much of a price mark-up, so when I can find a slightly cheaper copy, I intend to buy it. It's quite an impressive book, in both size and text. (http://www.alibris.com/booksearch?qwork=6887369&matches=27&wquery=Rottweiler&cm_sp=works*listing*title)
McNinch, Barbara L. "Training Your Rottweiler", Baron's Educational Series, 1999. I rented this one from my local library, and it's an interesting little read, and has some good basic Rottie behavior info.

Beauchamp, Richard. "Rottweilers For Dummies", Trade Paperback, 2000. If you can't find the Idiot's Guide to Rotties, this version isn't that bad, as the series is designed similarly, and they're both by the same author.

Blackmore, Joan. "The Rottweiler", Tetra Press, 1991. This book is obviously out of print, but I've seen glimpses of it, and does look like a good breed book. (http://www.alibris.com/booksearch?qwork=5817678&matches=43&wquery=Rottweiler&cm_sp=works*listing*title)
Here's a couple others, that I've never read, but have heard that they were noteworthy:
Ackerman, Lowell. "Dr. Ackermans Book of the Rottweiler" TFH, 1996.
Elsden, Larry & Judy. "The Rottweiler Today" Wiley & Sons, 1992.
Straton, Richard. "The Rottweiler" TFH.
Ochsenbein, Urs. "New Owner's Guide to Rottweilers", TFH, 1996
