solo sailing...rigging a boat.

Hello,
I am presently looking to buy a 23 to 27'' full keeled sailboat. What ever I buy I want to be sure I can handle it alone. Does anyone know of any books that touch on this topic in regard to rigging? This would include everything from vane steering types to ways to rig off line and blocks. ( Auto pilot out of my price range!) Would also touch on lazy jack rigging and such. If any of you would like to tell me how you manage sailing by yourself and whats important, I''d love to hear from you!
Thank You!
Martin
