The books that I would suggest would be "The Birth Book" by Dr. Sears or
"Natural Chilbirth The Bradley Way".  There is also a wonderful not very
well know book that is very supportive of natural birth and
breastfeeding.  It is "The Midwife's Complete Pregnancy and Childbirth
Book" By M. McCartney & A. Van Dermeer.
