Here is a comprehensive Slovak-English phrasebook. It's written for English speakers to learn Slovak, but some of my Slovak friends have found it useful, too. It could help.
Dubček's autobiography was a pretty great read start to finish.

It's quite a hard question, because even in Slovak language the best history book doesn't exist. It all depends which point of view is your favourite, because even if all those books contain correct facts, they usually put emphasis on different things.
For example, A History of Slovakia: The Struggle for Survival is a good book, but the title tells you what's important for author.
A struggle for survival or road to independence, well it is a totally legitimate viewpoint of history.
>While paying tribute to Slovakia's resilience and struggle for survival, it describes contributions to European civilization in the Middle Ages; the development of Slovak consciousness in response to Magyarization; its struggle for autonomy in Czechoslovakia after the Treaty of Versailles; its resistance, as the first Slovak Republic, to a Nazi-controlled Europe; its reaction to Communism; and the path that led to the creation of the second Slovak Republic.
There is another book that is also very good, A concise history of Slovakia. This book have intentionally a totally different viewpoint of history.
> Emphasis is placed on long-term continuity or discontinuity (political systems, elites, historical consciousness and so on), on integration into wider units and exchanges of cultural influences between the individual ethnic groups. The conception of the book opposes the teleological view of Slovak history as the "road to the nation’s own state".
I am using a "Spätzleblech" like this one: https://www.amazon.com.au/Chloe-Stainless-Steel-Spaetzle-Scraper/dp/B01A59GYNM/
Works fine.
