I recommend that you have available to you: 1. The GNU Make documentation (I like the FSF book on GNU Make because it's small and complete) 2. "Managing Projects with GNU Make" (Mecklenburg/O'Reilly) (full of good advice) And for a quick read you might want to look at my January 2005 DDJ article on "Cross Platform Builds". Ignore the cross-platform bit, it describes a non-recursive build system that might suit your needs. Or get the July Linux Magazine (coming soon!) and read "Recursive Make Reloaded".
