Learning logic, like almost everything else, is best started with textbooks. The selection of textbooks depends on your educational level, your specialization and your tasks. There are different textbooks of logic – more complex, simpler, for schoolchildren, for students, for lawyers, for philosophers, etc., with a bias in conducting discussions, in logical paradoxes, in syllogistics, in mathematical logic.
The best way to start learning logic is to choose which logic you want to learn out of the dozens known to mankind. For example, ancient Indian logic differs from classical or mathematical logic.

Indeed, I do not have complete information on all the works, but Aristotle wrote about logic in his time(in the Organon), of course we should not pass by Descartes(“Arguments on Method”), and Kant also dealt with logic(although not about it, his works are mostly about it. That is, it is a “Critique of Pure reason”). In general, many works of philosophers are either directly tied to logic, or use it. Hegel and his “Science of Logic”can also be attributed here. I'm sure you can write a lot more stuff, but I personally remember these works.
