Learn Html Coding

What book do you recommend to learn html or dreamweaver?
My college course for html coding and css was cancelled because of lack of enrollment. I want to get into web design but I don't know where to begin. I want to do it sucessfully. So looking for honest and serious advice. What do you all suggest?
WHAT HTML BOOK DO YOU SUGGEST. I DON'T KNOW HTML CODING AT ALL, BUT I WANT TO LEARN. HTML FOR DUMMIES YOU THINK?
Sometimes books are just nicer than online learning, right? No substitute for getting comfy on the couch, or in the park, with a nice cup of coffee and a book.
For ANY technical topic from design to programming, I highly recommend checking out books by O'Reilly. Surf for them on Amazon. Here's a link to one of their more recent HTML books...

A good place to start reading about HTML and design online...

I'm also putting together a beginning HTML course myself right now. It will be free, and it will be INTERACTIVE. So you'll be building a website as you go, and getting feedback and graded on your work not only by your instructor but by your fellow students, and you'll earn to work on projects as a team.

Though I do use Dreamweaver on occasion, I'll only be using FREE and easily available software for the course, which I've listed here...
