There is a helpful book by an Englishman, F Pain, called "The Practical Wood Turner". I don't know if it is still available, but it was paperback and cost about $6 when I bought it. Written by a guy who spent his life turning wood for a living. Tons of useful tips and explanations in there. Great read for anyone interested in turning without a duplicator.
Checked amazon. Plenty of used paperback versions for cheap. It is not anything you'd collect so don't worry if it is a beater. Its value is all in its words.
