Default Basic aerobatic instruction

Where should I look (search) for basic aerobatic instructions, such as, "To do an inside loop, begin in straight level flight, throttle up and pull back on the elevator stick ... etc."

Obviously, I can do a loop, aileron rolls, and a few other basics, but I'd like to expand my repertoire. I can ask more experienced flyers at the field, but I'd like to get a little bit of a jump on it by first understanding the principles better. I've seen some instructions in the magazines, but it would be great to have a reference booklet available to study.

I like your site. Exactly what I had in mind. A couple of the others are real good, too. Thanks.
