NSG is right. Learning the style, developing solo skills, and working out your own arrangements (based on traditions that you'll find in recordings, and your own imagination) is a much better way to go than a set of written out "books". Though I've seen such books for sale, the final product using such books (even with fine musicians) is vanilla at best.
