i currently have "Black powder Manufacture Methods and Techniques" by Ian Von Maltitz as well as Tom Perigrins book "Introductory Practical Pyrotechnics" wich has a prety good section on makeing BP.
 
Untill i have at least tried the methods in these books I think ill hold off on more how to  books on BP. Unless of course the general concensis is that these books are not something a beginner should be useing. I have been told by several pyros that these are indeed reputable books. 
 
Please advise on youre opinion.
Thanks in advance, Bill .

  I would recommend you get the Teleflite book, but yes it is more worthwhile making your own powder, but you CANNOT USE CERAMIC MEDIA, use only lead or even better brass pellets.
