The best book I know of is the book by John Barnes
called "Programming in Ada" (C)1996 from Addison-Wesley. (aka J.G.P Barnes)

There are a lot of books on Ada so you must specify Ada83 or Ada95.

Also, there are a lot of compilers for Ada83 and Ada95.
The commercial ones ARE available, but I think the lowest I saw one 
for was $495. I picked Visual Ada95 for the project I'm working on 
($695) but it is in Beta stages.

You can obtain IntegrAda, Visual Ada95 or Alsys compilers on 
http://www.pcada.com (starting point).

There is also the GNAT V3.05 (NYU) front-end compiler.
The books DO exist and so do the compilers, just that many are not 
well known or EXPENSIVE!
