There are a number of great resources out there, probably so many that it is mind-numbing to try and figure out where to start!
I would suggest Essential Exercises for Fingerstyle Guitar by Pete Huttlinger. Sample clip from Homespun:
And you should watch this interview with Thom Bresh were he talks about Merle Travis, Chet Atkins, Jerry Reed and others and demonstrates the original Travis picking by Merle evolving into alternating bass with Chet.
Enjoy the journey!
