I couldn't agree more.

I'd add:

for recipes; plus most recipes can be converted to sourdough once you
understand the basics about maintaining a starter and timing. So any
good bread book will do from then on.

I agree with Dick that ...
sample of Carl's starter (http://home.att.net/~carlsfriends/) then
visited Mike Avery's web site (http://www.sourdoughhome.com/), and
Dick Adams site (http://home.att.net/~dick.adams/sourdough.html), read
Darryl Greenwood's Sourdough FAQs (http://www.nyx.net/~dgreenw/
sourdoughfaqs.html) and made lots of sourdough bread.

Trial and success is a wonderful methodology!
