Two texts:
Wind Loading of Structures, John D. Holmes, 2001 Spon PRess, ISBN No. 0-419-24610-X. More practical than the one below.
Wind Effects on Structures Fundamentals and Applications to Design, 3rd edition; Emil Simiu & Robert H. Scanlan, John Wiley & Sons, 1996. ISBN No. 0-471-12157-6. Very theorteical.
Redfish, that is ASCE 7-05.
