Suggested Reading 

These are the books I have read and used in researching & finding recipes and ideas for brewing mead.  They cover not only mead, but beers, ciders, & wines as well.  Information on most types of brewing can be helpful for many non-related drinks.  Although there is a lot of information out there, mead isn't covered as well as some of the more common types, so you might want to try adapting beer or wine recipes to suit your mead.
