Basic info on Brooks type saddles?

I just got a bike that came with a saddle that may or may not be a "Brooks", but at least looks like one (see pic). I'm used to a big, comfy gel-filled sprung cruiser saddle, but I'm curious about how a Brooks would compare, given all I've read about them. To do a fair comparison, I need to know more about them; like how they should be set up, what shape they should have, how much tension, etc. (ie. Should I be sticking laces through the holes on the side to pull them together, or is it fine as it is?) Can anyone point to a page with basic beginner info on a Brooks saddle perhaps, so I can maybe get a clue on how to set it up?
