As a first book, I think John Barnes' Programming in Ada95, 2nd ed is
very good.  It broadly covers that language, providing what I think is
just the right amount of detail.

Norm Cohen's book, Ada as a Second Language, is OK too, but not as the
first Ada book you read; it has too much detail for a neophyte.
