There is a wonderfully detailed book on the Southern France landing. It is called
Dragoon - The Other Invasion of France - author Paul Gaujac
There is a section, The First Onslaught Comes From the Sea, which you would probably find of great interest. Lots of photos too.
It's worth having in your collection, and comes highly recommended by me and many of the veterans who landed there.
