After reading several hundred books during my more than 30 years as a photographer I'd like to recommend the following book as a good basic guide for learning Black and White Photography:

Ansel Adams Guide: Basic Techniques of Photography, Vol. 1 by John P. Shaefer

Vol. 2 is great for more advanced photographers. I used my copy several times for reference. Both are good value for money.
