Another good book on the subject is The Compleat Taildragger Pilot http://www.amazon.com/Compleat-Taildragger-Pilot-Harvey-Plourde/dp/0963913700.
I read both books while recently obtaining my tailwheel endorsement. I learned things from both. The Compleat Taildragger Pilot is very technical in its approach to teaching the aerodynamics involved.
