Hello,
I am agree with Dave : the book of Mary Blewitt is the simplest book about this subject.
I add that, in the first edition (1950), the tables used for calculation of altitude and azimuth are the ANT (Astronomical Navigation Tables), instead AP3270 (or HO 249). The tables ANT was used by Allied Air Force, before the publication of HO 249.
