WOW! What a response!

Thanks for all the collective wisdom, and the suggestions.

I've jumped on a few web sites and admired the author's workshops and their projects - especially Dr. Greg Latta's...

I've ordered, and received, a copy of the 1957 ARRL Handbook which, as Michael and others have said, is full of some gems.

Searching around ?I found a series called 'RIGHT - From the Start' in the 1956/57 editions of The Radio Constructor - a UK magazine of the era. It takes an amateur (like me) through the basics up to more complex theory in a series of 21 articles - it certainly looks to be a useful reference piece.

Lastly, I bought the 6-Parts that make up 'Basic Electronics - A Course of Training Developed for the United States Navy'; although my set says it is 'Adapted to British and Commonwealth Usage' which made me smile.

So I think I'm there for reference material, and I've now started working through Basic Electronics and filling in the gaps with The Radio Constructor as needed.

Thank you again for all of the input, I'm so grateful to all of you who took the time to share your suggestions.
