Gary Regan's "The Joy of Mixology" is full of useful information for a 
burgeoning bartender.  The recipes are only about a third of the book, the 
more valuable section is his discussion of what makes a good bartender, little 
things that make you appear more polished and knowledgeable.  While there is 
no substitute for experience, I found several things in this book that I used 
at work, that increased my awareness of something.  Experience is great, but 
you could do the same thing every day without actually improving your 
knowledge.  I'd say this book is a good primer for someone looking to get 
behind the bar.
