I've spent some time in Lebanon and I'm writing my honours thesis on the Lebanese Civil War, so I can probably help you quite a bit!

Robert Fisk - Pity the Nation: Robert Fisk was the one of the first foreign journalists to go into the camp during the massacre, so his first hand account of it in this book is pretty important.

Lucile Volk - Martyrs and Memorials: This is a great little book representative of the more modern historiographic type regarding Lebanon, I'm sure there's something about Sabra & Shatila in there.

Fawazz Trablousi - A History of Modern Lebanon This is the text you should read to give yourself some quick context on the conflict as well as understand the economic and social aspects behind the broader conflict.

For articles and such I would recommend checking out JSTOR, does your university have access to it? I wrote a (terrible) paper years ago on whether Sharon was legally culpable for the massacre so I'll see if I can dig it out for you and see what sources I used.

The Lebanese civil war was shockingly complicated and the 1982 invasion was only a facet of it. If you have any questions or want some clarification, feel free to PM me and I'll help as best I can.

Cheers!
