Leafhoppers (Homoptera: Cicadellidae) of Canada and Alaska By Bryan P. Beirne The Canadian Entomologist, Volume LXXXVIII, Supplement 2, 1956
This publication not only has detailed field descriptions but 518 detailed illustrations. Yes, it's old, but it's a start and it's affordable. What more could a novice want? While this publication does not have an ISBN, it is sometimes available from Amazon. I t can also be downloaded for $45 from Cambridge University Press

The leafhoppers, or Cicadellidae, of Illinois (Eurymelinae - Balcluthinae) By Dwight Moore Delong Bulletin of the Illinois Natural History Survey, Volume 24, Article 2, State of Illinois, 1948
A devote bug photographer, I became interested in leafhoppers about a year ago. It's easy finding specialty guides and books on popular insects, but not so for leafhoppers. This is the first book I've found available for leafhoppers. A large number of species have been named since this book was published in 1948. No problem.
This is NOT a field guide. This 376-page book is full of illustrations and descriptions to positively ID many of my local fauna. The descriptions are detailed for a better understanding this family, yet easily understandable by an amateur like me. You will not find a better leafhopper book for $30, sometimes available from Amazon.
