The Joy of Cooking, http://www.thejoykitchen.com/ and Mastering the Art of French Cooking.
Edit: If you'd like to learn how to bake, I'd suggest King Arthur Flour's Bakers Companion.

Saw a used On Cooking in "Like New" condition for $50 and grabbed it. Hopefully, it arrives in the promised condition and everything works out. Couldn't resist the price...

If you just want to explore more advanced techniques pick up the 1930's Joy of Cooking
