"The Gaff Rig Handbook" by John Leather is a good one. And although it's a big bite for the uninitiated, Lever's is a go-to tome.
The principles behind fidded topmasts and their rigging are fairly universal; I suggest discovering the traditional basics, then investigate modern refinements from there.
