You left this post quite a while back.

You can find inexpensive books and dvd lessons on ebay and/or amazon.com .

If you need a personal teacher, then most music stores that sell violins and fiddles can give you a few names to call.

It is hard to learn this type of instrument and lots of time practicing and learning will be required ---- no matter how you decide to learn.
