Default Best book for beginner?


I'm about to retire at age 62.

I would really like to get into wine making in a serious way. I've
tried a couple of kits from Jim's Home Brew Supply in Spokane - but
both times I thought the results were sort of poor.

Can anyone who has a lot of experience recommend some good reading on
the subject? Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble.com both list a ton of
books. Which are really useful? Beginner's book?

Has there ever been a FAQ for this group?

How does one get started in this? Are there any other good newsgroups
on-topic. I did a search on "winemaking" and found this group as the
only one active.

I'm a total newbie, so I'm throwing myself on your mercy. Any advice
would be ENORMOUSELY appreciated. Thank you, Bob
