Recent guide book (?2009/2010) for Hautes Alpes. Covers the area from the Vallee de la Claree down to Embrun up to the Italian border in the East and Ailefroide in the west. Good maps showing location of crags and either good sketches or photo topos showing the climbing. Not quite a rockfax but a really good guidebook for the region - it has 70 pages dedicated to the area around Ailefroide alone and the information is more accessible than the Escalades autour d'ailefroide. Bought the guide book from one of the outdoors shops in Ailefroide, costs 29 euros - pricey but the money is used to help manage and equip the crags.
