I didn't know anything about my 35mm manual camera. I checked out a book from the library, put out by Kodak--I don't remember the title, but it was something like Photography for Beginners, or How to Use your 35mm. I found it easy to understand, and learned how to use the camera.

A good genmeral book on photography is the Photographer's Handbook. Unfortunately, I can't remember the author's name, but most bookstores will have it. It is a very comprehensive book which describes just about everything a beginning to competent level photographer would need to know. Drawback, it's probably rather expensive.
