  Vertebrate Paleontology and Evolution by Robert L. Carroll (W.H.
Freeman & Co, New York) is excellent if you can get a copy (maybe from a
university library).  Carroll covers all groups of vertebrates, from
agnatha to mammals.

The Ecology and Biology of Mammal-Like Reptiles (ed. by Nicholas Hotton
III, Paul D. MacLean, Jan. J. Roth & E. Carol Roth) Smithsonian
Institute Press, washington & London, 1986
has some very good articles in it

there a good book by Chris McGowen which cover ichthyosaurs & other
mesozoic tetrapods; I think the title's "Dinosaurs, Spitfires and Sea
Dragons
