In my opinion, you probably don't need a book to teach yourself html. It is a very simple, tag based, markup language. Just about any good online tutorial should suffice. I would recommend the tutorials on
www.webmonkey.com -
beginning tutorial.
When you start going for more complicated websites that would use php and asp, then you will probably want a book.
Another good tool for learning html is an html cheat sheet like
this one. I still find myself looking at this one after 6+ years experience.
