Abrams,

What is the best way to get started?
Don't intend to sound "Blunt" but as some have mentioned.... Buy a kit..The instruction will tell you everything you need to know.

All three of these "Kit Makers" Have good instructions (at least good enough). Including what glue what kind of knife what size allen wrench -----what components you'll need....So On and On...
Balsa USA (as mentioned the trainer is intended to be a "building trainer")
SIG
Great Planes

All the books in the world will not squeeze any glue out of the bottle.
Good Luck,
