I know others here can recomend some books they really swear by, so I
won't pretend to speak for all.

After flipping through all the books on recording in our county
library system, the best resource I found was "Handbook for Sound
Engineers: Third Edition" by Glen Ballou. I don't own my own copy yet,
but I often wish did when group discussions get above my head. It lays
down the fundamentals of sound, microphones, and recording pretty well.
