Re: Homebrewing book options
I'd recommend the bottom 3, the last one in particular.

Hard to go wrong with any of them. BCS is full of great recipes to get you started.

Re: Homebrewing book options
how to brew is a great intro and covers all the basics - it is available free online (but its an older edition). some of the info in it is a little dated or disputed (i.e. equipment) but its a decent starting point
if you know how the brewing process works, BCS is great for recipes and style guidelines.
havent read the other two (or i dont remember if i did, haha)
