Hello John, further to Ken's response, the best textual beginners guide is Elizabeth Castro's "HTML, XHTML, and CSS", Sixth Ed ISBN 978-0321430847. She has also published "HTML 4 for the World Wide Web". Printed as Visual Quickstart Guides, they are easy reading with very good exercises & explanations. Even if these titles are not in your textbook list, they are a fabulous resource for new web designers.
