Yes, the "Getting Started With Lionel Trains" book comes to mind, and K-line's Track Layout and Accessory Manual is another good one.
An all inclusive book? None that I'm aware of. But there are books/guides dedicated to conventional, DCS, or TMCC/Legacy.

Thanks PP. I ordered both as well as The Big Book of Lionel and Wiring Your Toy Train.

I do not know of one book that covers everything?
In addition to the one's already mentioned, one I liked for just a general all around wiring guide was Wiring Your Toy Train Layout by Peter Riddle. It's mostly conventional oriented as I recall, but gives you the basics and I thought it was well written and easy to read. If you are conventional only, this is a good book to have.
For command control, for DCS it's the DCS O Gauge Companion (Barry's book). New version just released, get that one if you are going for DCS.
I don't know of one for Legacy? The Lionel website has some instructional videos and other information and their Track and Power catalog from a year or so ago has some information in it.
