I am currently teaching AP Physics C. It is my favorite course. I have the strongest students and it helps me further my own understanding. It also helps keep me in practice.
I am using Haliday and Resnick, not because it is the best text, but mostly for historical reasons.
I did some reading and was able to follow the basic discussion of their derivation of the Lorentz Transformation. I didn't check the algebra but could if I decided to. To my surprise, I followed the initial discussion of superluminal velocities and their example of the Swartzchild metric for a Black Hole. I was fortunate to have pursued some of that in graduate school so at least I have a foundation to work from there.
Cheers!
