Hey, This subject would make a good film! Never mind the 'Armegeddon' style Hollywood/asteroid fantasy, the chaos in the aftermath would be much more interesting!

It's science fiction, of course, but I've found that it might be closest to reality that fiction of this type of event can get. The book is titled "Lucifer's Hammer", and is by Larry Piven and Jerry Pournelle, who have written numerous novels, and I believe that one or both of them do try to be scientifically accurate when they write their fiction. Basically, it's about a comet that impacts the Earth within a short time of being discovered by two amateur astronomers, and the resultant effects on society as seen by a particular group of survivors. The book is available at Amazon.com if not in a local bookstore.
