The details are already at the top of this post, with a link to the publisher. The ISBN is in the EAN: 978-2-8127-0065-1, and the publisher is les Presses du Midi: www.lespressesdumidi.fr This page: http://www.lespressesdumidi.fr/auteur_courouble.htm takes you to the author's books, including this one in French, English and Dutch versions.

As for why it deserves a book, aside from the fact that it happened, I would cite the widespread rumors and tales which the events engendered. This is not <a href="http://edgeofthewest.wordpress.com/2009/07/15/death-preparatory-to-resurrection-boxers-july-13-16-1900/" rel="nofollow">a case of invention</a> but of transmission: how you tell the story makes a great difference in that case. And now I can use this story in my lectures without qualm! Fantastic!
