For a start, you need to read the Kojiki.

Begin here and go till at least the end of Volume 1 for the general background of the religion.

Then, read the first two chapters of the Nihon Shoki.

Both of these texts open with mythology before continuing into Royal dynamics as (like in many places) the two are inherently connected.

Aside these, Shinto is more based on ritual and practice than it is on structured reading; my advice is learn japanese and go to Japan. The culture is of course often intricately tied to the religion, and it will be far easier to both learn what you have to learn and practice in the proper way if you do.

>The formal state Shinto system that emerged in Japan as a result of the Meiji restoration has surprising parallels in contemporary North Korea. State Shinto, as outlined in the Yushukan Museum in Tokyo, presented a historic mission for the pre-war Japanese population. That was to wage the Greater East Asia War (Dai To A Senso), based on the bushido system of samurai valor. It sought to liberate the more backward peoples of Asia from Western imperialism and to bring to them, through the Great East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere, the modernization and economic benefits achieved by Meiji Japan. Juche’s mission, as outlined in museums in North Korea, is to continue the successful struggle which led to victory over Imperial Japan by opposing the American imperialists and re-unifying the mother country of Korea. Both ideologies presented their struggles as heroic ones demanding an “arduous march” of sacrifice by the people.
