American Quilts and How to Make Them by Carter Houck
One of the first books I ever bought on quilting. There is a lot of interesting history here, plus several authentic early American patterns for beautiful quilts.

White work : techniques and 188 designs by Carter Houck
A stitch dictionary and patterns. No pictures of finished pieces. Handy, but by no means definitive.

Better pictures than directions. But, some good ideas.
