The FAA (Federal Aviation Administration - US) provides some nice reading material on their website, including a free PDF download called "Helicopter Flying Handbook" (see link below).

http://www.faa.gov/regulations_polic...ying_handbook/

Which is also available as a paperback version at Amazon:

Rotorcraft Flying Handbook (FAA-H-8083-21): U. S. Department of Transportation, Federal Aviation Administration: 9781490446691: Amazon.com: Books Rotorcraft Flying Handbook (FAA-H-8083-21): U. S. Department of Transportation, Federal Aviation Administration: 9781490446691: Amazon.com: Books


Additionally I can recommend the following books, however they aren't specifically tailored to helicopter flying, but certainly very useful and interesting to any aviator.

Pilot's Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge: FAA-H-8083-25A (FAA Handbooks series): Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)/Aviation Supplies & Academics (ASA): 9781619540200: Amazon.com: Books Pilot's Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge: FAA-H-8083-25A (FAA Handbooks series): Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)/Aviation Supplies & Academics (ASA): 9781619540200: Amazon.com: Books


Instrument Procedures Handbook: FAA-H-8083-16 (FAA Handbooks series): Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)/Aviation Supplies & Academics (ASA): 9781619541856: Amazon.com: Books Instrument Procedures Handbook: FAA-H-8083-16 (FAA Handbooks series): Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)/Aviation Supplies & Academics (ASA): 9781619541856: Amazon.com: Books


The above books are also available as a free download at the FAA website - see following link:
