In English:
A good starting point is Gordon A. Craig, The Politics of the Prussian Army, 1645-1945 - the book was published 50 years ago, but as an examination of the "army which has a state" it's hard to beat.
Peter H. Wilson, The Holy Roman Empire 1495-1806 is a good overview with an up-to-date bibliography which will lead you to more specific reading.

Try "Iron Kingdom - The Rise and Downfall of Prussia 1600 - 1945"
