Three books on connecting Java to databases: George Reese’s O’Reilly JDBC guide, O’Reilly’s Java Data Objects by JDO spec lead Craig Russell and David Jordan, and Wrox’s thick Beginning Java Databases.
JDBC for direct SQL access, JDO for transparent object persistence (the standard that came before JPA), and a Wrox beginner’s guide that covers JDBC, SQL and database design from the ground up.
