Books are ok, videos are better. Nothing is better than having knife in hand and actually getting stuck in.
I thought I was adequate at field dressing but the last one I got one I learnt a few great pointers from @Pointer. When gutting hack through the chest right up through the cartalidge. This gives you way more roome to get through the diafram and also better access to the organs. I was previously poking around in a small opening and this just adds a heap of time to the process. Practise on goats if deer and pigs are hard to come by.
