You might try learning Standard ML first; it's a little easier to
grasp. It's also the language most universities use to teach
functional programming, so there's plenty of introductory material
floating about. Haskell is descended from ML, so pretty much
everything you learn will carry over (exception: don't bother with the
ML module system).
