Both the Haynes 'Caravan Manual' and the 'Caravanning Handbook' both written by John Wickersham are good books to have but the manual is more about caravan repairs whereas the latter is more about caravanning in general which I recommend and covers about every topic you need to know about caravanning which I consider is the better of the two to have as a starter book. It can be found at most caravan accessory shops or you can purchase off the internet but there are two which is the first edition (which I have) plus a second edition. The link below is merely for reference purposes so you can shop around for the best price.

First edition:  http://www.amazon.co.uk/The-Caravan-Handbook-Enjoying-Improving/dp/1859608019/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1372551698&sr=8-2&keywords=the+caravanning+handbook+by+John
