There are plenty of free books, including the classic texts, on the internet sacred texts archive:
http://www.sacred-texts.com/bud/index.htm
It might be a good place to start, although I'm sure there are numerous other websites. there are some more modern books on buddhism there also, although I usually prefer to read the source material.
Endurance, as everywhere, will be the measure of your success.
I think dharmaoverground has good material, that I remember. It's been a while, though.

"Stop acting as if life is a rehearsal" Dr. Wayne Dyer.
I strongly recommend The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying by Sogyal Rinpoche, however it's not a primer on the tenets of Buddhism but blends well with meditation work.
Btw, that Noble Eight-fold Path can be a real bugger. When it comes to "Right Work" it can be very conflicting in this modern age.
Best of luck to you, the study of Buddhism changed my life and might well yours, but hang on, it's worth the trip!
Matter is only mind in an opaque condition; and all beauty is but a symbol of spirit.
