What is the best Maven book (or material) for new users?

What is the best Maven book (or material) for new users?

I am tasked with decomposing an existing system that contains 21 POM
files, so, I have a lot of work ahead of me and I'm looking for the
best resource possible.

I would say The Definitive Guide:

http://www.sonatype.com/products/maven/documentation/book-defguide

Also, Better Builds with Maven is a good book, although a bit
outdated, but it covers the basics very well.

http://www.exist.com/better-build-maven

For other sources of documentation, search this list and as last
resort, send this list a message, it is very responsive. (At least,
the people on it)

That alpha copy is a very, very old version and is not even close to 
what was printed (which is by now old). The latest and greatest is 
published regularly here:

There is an "alpha" copy of The Definitive Guide online:
http://propellors.net/maven/book/

I've been reading through it I've found it to be very good, and I'm planning
on picking up a print copy soon.

I won't claim it to be "the best" material available by any means, but I've
created a few introductory screencasts on Maven at
http://javidjamae.com/screencasts/
