There is a *lot* of online perl documenation.  man perl.  Go to
http://www.perl.com, and check the "documentation" & "faqs" links.  Make
sure you installed the perl docs package, and look in
/usr/doc/perl-doc or /usr/share/doc/perl-doc (or more likely something
vaguely resembling one of those).

I was thinking "I started with the camel book, what's his problem?", then
remembered I'd done a little perl using the online documentation before I
actually got that book.  man perl & perldoc (the command) are your
friends.
