"Fundamentals of Poker - Malmuth/Loomis" should do the trick. Where are you from btw?

He might be talking about poker in general, not just hold 'em.

"Robert's Rules of Poker" can be found online.

Phil Gordon's "Little Green Book" is pretty good for brand new NLHE players. If you're taling about tournaments, I'd go for Harrington 1 and 2.

If you're playing holdem, Getting Started in Holdem is pretty much perfect.
