Bill Brewster and Frank Broughton's Last Night a DJ Saved My Life was the definitive history of the DJ. Diagrams throughout illustrate phrases, beat timing, and song structure with no reliance on music theory, and resource lists recommend everything from which songs are best (and most fun) to learn with, to good sources for building a library of disks, CDs, and MP3s.
