Check the links in the side panel. Some good resources there. Other than that I can recommend some good text books but nothing will ever compare to a course.
There is a lot of stuff that is extremely difficult to describe but simple to demonstrate. Look for local bookbinders guilds or society courses. Not sure where you live so can't recommend any.
Unfortunately I haven't found any youtube stuff that really demonstrates everything you will need to know. There are some good tutorials on specific bits but none overall.
As far as books go I highly recommend https://www.amazon.com/Thames-Hudson-Binding-Manuals-Paperback/dp/0500680116
I got a copy for $10au on ebay. Fantastic information on all types of binding and the skills required. I would suggest starting with a cloth bound case binding and working up from there.
Good luck
