The best Debian reference manual is called "The Debian Reference Manual." It's 
free, and can be downloaded here in a variety of languages and formats:

http://www.us.debian.org/doc/manuals/reference/

If you want it in English, then download either reference.en.txt, 
reference.en.html or reference.en.pdf.

It's very detailed and maybe more than you want if you're just starting out 
with Linux. But if you want to understand Debian thoroughly, this is as good 
as it gets.

cheers,
