POH/flight manual.

The only book you should use regarding the piloting of your aircraft is the APPROVED flight manual.

If the POH tells me to use full power against the brakes I do it!

JL.

From the Cessna 150 approved flight manual.

Maximum performance take-off.
(1) Wing flaps -- up.
(2) Carb. heat -- cold.
(3) Brakes -- Hold.
(4) Throttle -- Full "OPEN"
(5) Brakes -- Release
(6) Elevator Control -- Slightly tail low.
(7) Climb speed -- 68mph (with obstacles ahead)

The Piper Warrior is similar but gives much more detail and the option to use different flap settings and speeds.
