I doubt there's an _Ada95_ book focused on GNAT.  However, there is "The
Big Online Book of Linux Ada Programming"
(http://www.vaxxine.com/pegasoft/homes/book.html), that is focused on
using GNAT on Linux.  Obviously it won't help you much with Windoze
programming, but it might provide you some assistance with GNAT and the
libraries.

I've been a supported user of GNAT in the past, and unless they've
changed, they do not provide printed manuals.  They do provide
Postscript versions of the manuals (included with the public releases),
so you can just print those off, or send the file to some document
production organization and have them print and bind it.

HTH.
