For a usable introduction, I like Elizabeth Castro's "XML for the
World Wide Web (Visual QuickStart Guide)". It's been out for several
years, but covers all the basics with vivid examples. Note that this
is not a complete reference, but more in-depth information is readily
available on the web.

I see that Amazon has used copies for under $3.
