I would recommend getting Charles Petzold's Programming Windows 3.1
from Microsoft Press.  While this book is oriented to C 
programming it has been the first book many Windows programmers
have used.   The Petzold book won't teach you how to program Windows
in Ada but it will give you a broad understanding of Windows and
the Windows API that can be applied across languages.
