and there is a wikipedia entry

If your school/college has access to it there is very good entry for him in the on-line version of the Oxford Dictionary of Biography which runs to a number of pages. Your local library might also have a copy of 'The Good Soldier', which is a biography of Haig by Gary Mead.
