Default How to land on a grass airstrip

As with everything else connected with flying, "landing on grass" is best
not considered in one all encompassing definition for do's and don't's.
One of the worst habits a pilot can get into from the first day of training
is to begin thinking this way.
Landing on grass has all the variables associated with it that will be found
for any single location and set of conditions.
The best way to think about issues like this is to completely forsake the
"axiom" route and instead think in terms of SPECIFIC existing conditions for
the intended landing.

Can anybody point out a good bibliography or article that describes the
differences in landing on a grass airstrip for the first time, tips and
advices? Thanks
