Here is a list of some of the Trumpet books which I found very helpful in my development and which some of the best players in the world use:

J.B Araban Cornet Method

Prelude to Brass Playing (Raphael Mendez)

Louis Maggio System for Brass

James Stamp Trumpet Method

Clarke Technical Studies For Trumpet

Systematic Approach To Daily Practice (Claude Gordon)

Daily Trumpet Routines (Claude Gordon)

Max Schlossburg Daily Drills

I would not recommend a beginner however to attempt these methods books without guidance from an experienced teacher as correct fundamentals must first be established to ensure future progress.
