For a good CAD user book i find the one for QCAD very good for learning the basics of CAD drawing (and the Qcad software).

This book is not free (35$), but it's available in multiple languages (english, french, german, italian). Even if you use another CAD software, its a good starting point.

As a free alternative to QCAD book, here are few books for LibreCAD.

BTW, Its just for 2D/2.5D CAD (CADD), while for 3D CAx (CAM, CAE, FEM, etc.) you need a lot more knowledge.
