This should help, for debian:
http://www.us.debian.org/doc/#manuals

Linux in general:
http://linux-newbie.dotsrc.org/index.html

  

If you have managed to install debian right now,
apt-cache search debian reference will list all available packages 
related to debian.

I have found The Debian System by Martin Krafft to be very useful.  I'm 
not sure if it would be adequate by itself for a total beginner, but it 
is a very comprehensive guide to installing and maintaining a debian 
system.

I have "The Debian System" and that is a decent book -> 
http://www.nostarch.com/frameset.php?startat=debian


The Debian documentation (http://www.debian.org/doc/
) is also a great place to start as well a the all important man pages.

I am fairly new to Debian myself and between these three resources I 
have been able to answer any question that I had about the system.
