I am building a small cottage as a do-it-yourself project. I have
never put on a roof before, and I need to know what goes on top of the
sheathing.

My assumption is:

1. Building wrap
2. Mineral wrap
3. Felt
4. Asphalt shingles

Is this correct?

Just the last 2. I.e.; felt, then shingles.

Please note: This is true only for shingles and only on the
main body of the house. If you have hips and valleys, wall
intersections, chimneys, etc. then you will ALSO need various
types of flashings, Ice and water shields, etc.
