I'm unsure what you want to learn--Apache CXF source code internals or
JAX-WS/JAXB in general?  If the former, I'd follow the building and setting
up Eclipse documentation on the Apache CXF website (lower left menu here: 
http://cxf.apache.org/) so you can see all of CXF's Maven modules, and from
there, look at what interests you the most.  If the latter, this book: 
http://www.jroller.com/gmazza/entry/soa_using_java_web_services is pretty
good, and also being familiar with how Metro works (so you're confortable
switching between two web service stacks) can also help: 
http://www.jroller.com/gmazza/entry/creating_a_wsdl_first_web1 .

HTH,
Glen
