"For almost thirty years, M. James Penton’s Apocalypse Delayed has been the definitive scholarly study of this religious movement. As a former member of the sect, Penton offers a comprehensive overview of the Jehovah's Witnesses."

I've been saying this for a while now, but I've found that most thorough, scholarly work for the complete history of the JW's is:

Apocalypse Delayed, by James Penton

The official history is the Proclaimers book. I don't know if it's still published. It's not at all an honest history though. If you want the real story you should read Apocalypse Delayed by M. James Penton.
