an opinion i don't find expressed in the archives, so i'll say it once:
just about every book on jsp or servlets ever published uses tomcat as
the example engine. they may not have "tomcat" in the title, but they
all shows how to do the things described in the books specifically with
tomcat. pick one. there are dozens. just imagine the title has "with
tomcat" appended to the end. most of them will have at least one chapter
on how to set up tomcat for the examples in the books. some books won't
go much beyond how to embed java in a page while some will spend a few
hundred pages on taglibs. but you have to look hard to find a current
jsp or servlet book that doesn't tell how to do whatever it's describing
specifically with tomcat. they might not detail administrivia about how
to integrate tomcat with this or that web server, but that docs do that
-more than well enough-. indeed, they do it -really, really- well.
a year ago, i didn't even know how to spell tomcat. i picked up a pretty
horrible book from sams publishing called _pure jsp_ and within a day i
had a working application for database queries at work using tomcat.
it's embarrassing how much information on tomcat is available at any
backwater barnes and noble. if i'd known it was so easy, i would have
done it a long time ago.
