Harrington on Hold'em Vol 1.

Don't even buy volume 2 until you have played MTTs for 6 months or so.

I'll agree with Sossman wholeheartedly here. I started playing about 6 months ago and started with Harrington on Hold Em 1 & 2. I was able to absorb and understand a lot from Vol. 1 with little to no experience. I read Vol. 2 and was lost. After playing for nearly 6 months I've gone back to re-read them and gained much more this time through. The playing experience coupled with study is paramount to success.

Best of luck!
