7.11.0 is better than the previous versions. I can't tell you if that is
reason enough to upgrade for you. I would use 7.11.0.

For requests other than GET, correct.

No, you read the docs and pass on data as it describes. When you use
authentication, you pass on the user name and password to libcurl. It will
then take care of whatever it needs to do to actually make that authentcation
method work. You won't even have to know what base64 is.

There's no book, but all the man pages and pretty much documenation is
available online: http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/
