Or buy both Starting Strength and NROL. NROL is a great book for basic understanding of movement patterns and lifting in general, and it's an easy, entertaining read. But Starting Strength is so good a teaching the big lifts. There's detail upon detail about how to squat and deadlift. The NROL forum is full of questions from new lifters about how to perform those lifts. It'd be worth it to get both books, IMO.
