Congratulations to your new Leica! You were asking about Leica books:

I would start with one of these three books:
Gunter Osterloh: Leica M, The advanced school of photography
Jonathan Eastland: Leica M Compendium
Brian Bower: Leica M Photography

Personally, I like Osterloh best, but it is the oldest book (1987). There is
a new updated (info about latest lenses) German edition from 1996, maybe it
has been published in English too. Well, I think you would be happy with any
of these three books. Another nice little book is "Leica Pocket Book", where
you will find info about every Leica model and lens, production numbers,
serial numbers, etc.
Let us know if you need ISBN-numbers. You will find cover photos of the
books on my site, and you will also find book recommendations at Erwin Puts
