One of the best, most fun and most practical books I can recommend is The Art of the Start by Guy Kawasaki. I read it after I built and sold my first business, and I wished I read it before!
Another great, if odd, book was Rich Dad's Guide to Investing- I literally used the B-I triangle in the Building a Business section to build my business!

The best place to start would be looking for an entrepreneurship resource center in your area or to take a short entrepreneurial course. It may seem like an extra hassle but it will really pay off!
