Buy this book

Amazon Amazon

It goes through the landing process in a range of scenarios and was the best flying book I ever bought.

The key point is that landing is a process not an event. It starts with setting up a stable approach and ends with a parked aeroplane. The tricky bit is the round out and flare. Basically you learn to round out at a sensible height, close the throttle and then pull the yoke or stick back slowly a bit like trying NOT to land. If you have it dead right the wheels will touch gently with the yoke or stick all the way back and the stall warner sounding. You then lower the nose, roll out to taxi speed and taxi to the stand. Simples!
