As an old wrench I have collected many over the years. I have both Zinn and Park. They are both good. If I were to pick between only those two for a rebuild I would pick Park. The best manual is the four volume Barnett’s manual. They also have Maintenance school in Colorado. The book and School is the best you will find on the market. Trick is the book is about $115 and worth every penny. If you only do one bike every few years. Maybe $100 at a “good” LBS is worth it.

Just checked the link in post #3 at that price it is a deal. I heard from Barnett's that this is the last paper version. I would grab it at that price.

They also have a PDF version that is updated often.

Good luck
