Milling in the lathe is feasible but very limited.
Really, you need a vertical slide with suitable vice or clamps though it's possible to do some limited milling operations without. The primary requirement is the saddle having Tee-slots, otherwise you've no way to mount a vertical-slide or directly-clamped work.
The smaller the lathe the more limited it is too, not least because the machine's rigidity diminishes with the size reduction. It is fine for turning within its capacity but not really built to be used as a milling-machine, so such work is something of a compromise. Nevertheless a lot of fine models have been made using the lathe as a mill, with the part held on a vertical slide and the cutter in the chuck or (better) a collet. You need take it very steadily with gentle cuts.
One operation to which a lathe with slotted cross-slide or boring-table is very amenable, is boring between centres, and to a lesser extent, the associated facing. For this the work is clamped to the slide, with suitable packing to raise it to the correct height. Used with the fine feed, this is the best way to bore cylinders accurately. (The industrial horizontal borer is much the same thing beefed up, in principle.)

For a guide, I don't think you will find a book dedicated to "Milling InThe Lathe". However, a lot of information on this has been published over the years in model-engineering text-books. You may need look back a bit to older books, e.g. published in the 1950s-70, as using the lathe as a mill has been supplanted to a large extent by … the milling-machine! Also buy an introductory book on milling, for information on cutter types, speeds and feeds, general principles, etc.
For accessories, since you name the Warco lathe, try examining their catalogue.
