Best books for a Beginning Reloader

Hey everyone, my nephew recently turned 18 and got his hunting license so me and his Dad are going to be taking him out to the range fairly often now. We wanted to teach him more than just what you do at the range, so we are going to all be learning how to reload bullets together. My brother and I both did a little reloading when we were younger, but it has been almost 20 years now so I assume that a lot has changed since then.

So, the three of us are looking for some books that we can read up on together to learn about reloading before we even stand in front of a bench. I am hoping that we can find some books from the past decade as well as some older books so that we can contrast the information between them. I plan on buying the books(at least one copy of each book anyways) so a library is not going to be much help other than deciding if a book might be good for us. Any books that you all can recommend for some beginners that we might be able to order online? Thanks in advance.

Edit- I had trouble finding some of the books in the shops around the house, so I went online and ended up finding a plethora of reloading books at http://www.used.forsale/reloading-books that I went and bought. Thanks again for the advice everyone, I am sure the boy will like it.

Wow, such awesome replies from everyone. I will be looking to get some manuals from Sierra I think and another from Lyman. We will also be showing him the online resources mentioned and have a look ourselves to see what has changed since the old man taught us in a dark shed in winter. I will also be passing on the names of the books that we don't buy to relatives so they will know what to get the boy for graduation. Thanks everyone!
