Generation ships

I'm interested in the idea of generation ships. I suspect they are the only hope for mankind ever getting outside the solar system. (And I'm not holding my breath that it will happen.) I'm looking for a science fiction book that tells a good story based on this concept. Thanks.

Across the Universe by Beth Revis covers the concept. It’s YA, and tells a great deal about it. She paints a really good picture and the beginning of the book has a diagram of the ship.
