Apache portable runtime tutorials?

My platform is gcc 4.4.3, C89, on Ubuntu 10.4.

I am looking for some tutorials or ebooks for installing and using the Apache portable runtime.

So far, I have only found the links below. I was looking for something with more information. A book text book that explains everything from installing apr, to linking and compiling with your application.

http://apr.apache.org/docs/apr/1.4/index.html

Many thanks for any advice,
