There are a surprisingly large number of books that will do a good job of clawhammer instruction. But I’ll assert that the first book any banjoist should own is Ken Perlman’s.
For one thing, Ken writes long, patient explanations about all the basic mechanics of the instrument, and then gives plenty of examples.
