This is your bible for engineering drawing, a copy of BS 8888 is very useful as well as ISO EN 129.
I work in the oil and gas industry in the UK at work we use this:
Manual of Engineering Drawing
I find it has most things like welding symbols, dimensioning principles and surface finishes it is pretty much my bible at work.
As for an actual standard like BS8888 they all cost £100+ and I can never find them online.
Hope it helps.

The above is a good textbook on engineering drawing, it's based on BS8888.
The most important thing is to think about how a component is going to be manufactured. If you have an array of holes for which the location relative to each other is important then position one relative to your datum and then dimension the rest of them relative to that hole.
Take care with running dimensions as you get compound tolerances.
