The best book on older biological flights that I've seen was:
 
"Animal Astronauts: They Opened the Way to the Stars" by Clyde R
Bergwin and William T O Coleman published by Prentice Hall in 1963. 
 
This is a quick summary of what I've got relatively easily to hand.
Hope it helps. I'd appreciate any corrections or additions. thanks 
 
	Carl
 
PS: Recent reports regarding Felix in Spaceflight don't correspond to
    the Veronique launch logs.
