Bad Science: The Short Life and Weird Times of Cold Fusion (Book) by Gary Taubes, 1993. Authoritative account of the cold fusion saga, has by far that most details about behind the scenes events, especially anything relating to Steven Jones and Marvin Hawkins. Taubes is also notable for his reporting on the Texas A&M tritium spiking allegations.

Too Hot to Handle: The Race for Cold Fusion (Book) by Frank Close, 1991. The first major book written about cold fusion written from the perspective of a physicist following the story as an outside observer. Has particularly good info on the gamma ray peak dispute. Close also gave a public talk on the contents of his book in 1991 which was recorded.
Voodoo Science: The Road from Foolishness to Fraud (Book) by Robert Park, 2000. Cold fusion is mentioned as one of several examples of 'Voodoo Science' throughout the book, which generally has a focus on Washington and science funding.
The Cornell Cold Fusion Archive (originally curated by Bruce Lewenstein). Has an extensive copy of many original documents, news coverage, etc. They also provided me with a digitized video copy of the Baltimore APS meeting.
Truth and Consequences: How Colleges and Universities Meet Public Crises (Book) by Jerrold Footlick, 1997. A chapter of this book is dedicated to assessing how the University of Utah administration handled the cold fusion controversy.

Fusion Fiasco (Book) by Steven Krivit, 2016. Book 2 of 3 in a series about cold fusion and LENR. Krivit heavily editorializes in favour of Pons and Fleischmann and is an advocate of LENR. With that caveat, he has done extensive independent research including interviews with many of those involved and cites documents not widely published anywhere else.
