Hi Didier,
Personally I quite like Tomcat: The Definitive Guide from O'Reilly 
(http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/tomcat/index.html), it covers version 4 
but it's still quite relevant for version 5.

As for Java books I'd recommend Java How To Program by Deitel  Deitel 
(http://www.deitel.com/books/jHTP6/) for good general coverage, and for 
detail both Java In A Nutshell 
(http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/javanut4/) and Java Enterprise In A 
Nutshell (http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/jentnut2/).

I could do anything, if only I could get 'round to it

No need for a Tomcat book.  I've found the docs and list quite useful.
(If you can't learn from your own mistakes, learn from someone else's.)
Know the servlet spec, too.

Most books are obsolete by the time they hit the shelves.  How many
questions do we get from people, following examples in books, expecting
the Invoker Servlet in v5.x??

It's easier to find timeless wisdom for a language.  Bruce Eckel's
Thinking In Java is introductory-level without being condescending.

The best thing you can do is take Tomcat and Java, play with them, make
mistakes and fix them as you learn.

Not really, I think TC 5 changed a whole lot from 4. Go with the O'Reilly one.
