My questions:
1) Suggested reading for a beginning carver?
2) Beginners carving tools?
3) Resources for carving tools and sharpening equipment.

Chris Pye. Google for him, and sign up for his e-newsletter. Read all his
books. ...and cut some wood. Really.

He's good, but I like Dick Onians' "Essential Woodcarving Techniques"
and Mike Burton's "Architectural Carving: Techniques for Power and
Tools" better for Tom's needs. Get the pair for $20.50 used from
Amazon.
