REPLY:

The ARRL Handbook is a good place to start. Nearly everything you need is in
there and when you run across something that's not clear, just ask a
question here. Recent editions are usually available on eBay or amazon.com.
Don't get one more than about three years old.
If you also get it on disk, it turns searching for a particular topic, 
reference, quote, or author from minutes or hours into a few seconds.
Although some of the older ones may have tubes/valves covered in more 
detail.
The theory is good, but many of the circuit designs may have a flaw or two.

Newer books will have newer material although some of the out dated stuff gets dropped. OTOH they have had a 4CX1600B amp in there for quite a few years. It's a nice amp but the tube was dropped from production years ago.
They seem to change very little from year to year, but new stuff does 
get added so, normally the latest is best and they have been on DVD for 
quite a few years. You can install the book, or just copy the files and 
use a link to the beginning to start it or click on setup application.
There is an extensive section on Vacuum Tube Basics with the rest of the 
chapter evolving into amplifier design.
73 and good luck,

Good luck and have fun!
