Old Lyman manuals would probably be the best textbook for anyone starting out. The basic principles dont change but through experimentation guys develop shortcuts or sidesteps based on experience. Start simple and work up.
I still use a simple Lee handloader for 45/70 and 3030, hammer the primers out hammer a new one in makes ammo as good as anything, and gives young guys at the range something to watch they've never seen before.
