The classical reference is the book "Circular Statistics" by the late
Eduard Batschelet (Zürich), but unfortunately it is out of print. Your
library should have a copy, though.

Alternatively, you can use "Statistical analysis of circular data" by
N.I. Fischer (Cambridge 1993) which is useful and concise, but I really
understood it only after reading the Batschelet.
