Seem to be having trouble posting - I'll try this again-

Mike Horne's web site "Friends of the Speeton Clay" is an excellent
resource.

AFAIK there is no specific book on the Speeton clay - unlike other
exposures such as the Oxford Clay and Creataceous Chalk. Most of it
is in scientific journals such as the Proceedings of the Geologists
Association etc. Main authors are Lamplugh, Peter Rawson, Jack Doyle
(Ammonites) and Mutterlose & Mitchell (Belemnites).

There is an excellent chapter in "The Yorkshire Coast" - Geologists
Association Guide No. 34 by Peter Rawson and J K Wright.

Chris Traxon has also written a guide available to buy on-line

http://www.fossilsfromtheuk.co.uk/

Try a google search for Heritage Books - they sometimes have off-
prints of Journals.

Hope this is of some help
