I recommend 3 books to get your started.

1. [Bourbon, Straight: The Uncut and Unfiltered Story of American Whiskey] (http://www.amazon.com/Bourbon-Straight-Unfiltered-American-Whiskey/dp/0975870300) by Charles Cowdery
   
   
2. Bourbon, Strange by Charles Cowdery
   
   
3. Kentucky Bourbon Whiskey: An American Heritage by Mike Veach
   
   You'll learn how brands and distilleries were started, shuttered, shuffled, and sold. You'll learn who influenced and inspired brands and names.
   
   The two authors of the three books are arguably the foremost authorities on the subject of bourbon, most especially its history. Besides, the books are phenomenal reads IMO.
