Mean Square Error in DOA Estimation

The Johnson and Dudgeon book also covers some other related topics e.g. 
tracking, and detection theory (NP criteria) - these serve as an 
introduction to these topics. The first 3 vols of Van Trees cover 
detection and estimation.

Van Trees is more like a cookbook.  Johnson and Dudgeon is a pretty easy read 
but I don't remember if there is a section on estimation of error in DOA.
