Download the source code from codeplex, build and run it as normal Visaul Studo project. You will see how it works and what are the behind scene components.
for .NET I have used two content management systems- Umbraco and DotNetNuke. Both have their strengths and weaknesses. If you want to go fo out of the box editing of your site, I would suggest DotNetNuke.
But if you want more control over your pages and use of Master pages, Umbraco would be more suited. If you are going in for a shared hosting environment, check with your host, if he would allow full permissions, because of these CMSs dont like restrictive
access settings.
Well if you want to learn about CMS then the books/articles are the best resource, however, already developed CMS (open source) will certainly help you understanding the core of CMS development.
I would just you to first get a thorough understanding of development methodologies, patterns and then get involved in CMS development.

Check www.umbraco.org
Umbraco is open source CMS, which is developed using .NET Framework.
Documentation: http://umbraco.org/documentation
it is proven successful CMS system. You can download source code free of cost from http://www.codeplex.com/umbraco
Download the source code from codeplex, build and run it as normal Visaul Studo project. You will see how it works and what are the behind scene components.
you can find all resouces on both the websites.

Unfortunately, the community edition for dotnetnuke doesnt have much support and tutorial. There is more paid content than free.
But the Wrox books are good. Professional DotNetNuke. Its written by the creator of DotNetNuke.
