I only recently began to learn about the Taungoo Empire founded by Bayinnaung, and inspired by the magnificently cool looking golden statue on his wiki page I have been trying to learn as much about him and the regime he founded, but unfortunately there seem to be no good books that I can find with a simple google search. What solid academic work is there on these topics?
Most of what will be readily available in English is going to be contained in more general overviews of Burmese history. That's not to say they don't get into reasonable detail though.
Then there are a number of reasonable gneral histories which spend time on Taungu:
Htin Aung's History of Burma
Harvey's History of Burma
Topich & Leitich's History of Myanmar
Aung-Thwin's A History of Myanmar Since Ancient Times
Bayinnaung is still revered today, and has no shortage of text about him written in Burmese. However I'm not sure of anything devoted to him in English.
There's a Civ VI mod too where you can play as Bayinnaung, which I obviously wouldn't suggest as a historical source, but it's worth downloading if you play Civ VI, because Bayinnaung.
Is there specific stuff you are looking for, or just more general interest?
edit: see u/PangeranDipanagara's comment for what I've missed.
I agree with /u/Keyilan's post generally, but he misses the only real English-language work that focuses on the history of Taungu Burma (and which, by virtue of not only its uniqueness but by being an excellent work of scholarship in general, is really the English source to consult for the era). That work is Victor Lieberman's Burmese Administrative Cycles: Anarchy and Conquest, c. 1580-1760, which, despite its subtitle, does spend a lot of time on the First Empire.
