I'm looking for a good book, or video, on course management and wonder
if anyone has a recommendation.

You don't need a book or a video. You just need a ball and a putter.
(A wedge will also work if you don't have too much breakable stuff
around.)
Place the ball on your living room floor. Pretend the hole is
somewhere in another room. Figure out the best way to get the ball to
the hole in the fewest strokes. If there is an object in between you
and your target like a wall, a couch, or a chair, then weigh your
options. Sometimes it is best to play around an object rather than
take multiple strokes trying to get through it. If the ball goes
behind the TV cabinet, take a drop rather than expending even more
strokes trying to get it out.
Oh yeah, one more thing: this exercise doesn't work if you have cats.
Figuring out how to get from point A to point B in the fewest
strokes ..... that's course management. Always remember that your
goal on each shot is to make the next shot as easy as possible. Kinda
like shooting pool, except you don't have to make the first shot. The
decisions you make on the course share the same goal. It also helps
to make an honest assessment of your game (your strengths and
weaknesses) so that you know exactly what you are capable of, and even
more importantly, what you are not.
