Welcome on board...
You are at the right place, and we do have a RH forum in operating systems....
Start by getting it installed and learn the UNIX/linux basics and so any good unix book will do, I would believe any linux distrib also...
Then when more confident start reading in RH forum and post there. At that point I am sure you will have your opinion on what is a good book about RedHat...

Good Luck!

And if you can't your hands on a copy of Red Hat to play with, download it's clone CentOS - www.centos.org - The Community ENTerprise Operating System

Have fun.
