Los Alamos: The Ranch School Years 1917-1943 by John D. Wirth and Linda Harvey Aldrich, as published by The University of New Mexico Press (Albuquerque) in 2003.

This is a rather minor addition, as it has only a few short items about Burroughs (one: "Billy [William S.] Burroughs, who attended the camp for three summers and the school for two years, chafed under the school discipline and several times was in trouble for the use of drugs and alcohol.") and a mention of Burroughs on the rear cover. No photographs of Burroughs.

Nevertheless, it is a thorough book on the school, gives a very clear impression of the experience of attending it, and the character of those who ran it.
