I've used HTML, XHTML, & CSS by Elizabeth Castro for years - from when I dabbled in webdesign - and found it very helpful. She has a later book, EPUB Straight to the Point which is also very helpful even though it has an emphasis on iBooks and InDesign, and is a little out of date now. Another shorter book is Teach Yourself CSS in 10 minutes, by Russ Weakley
I found what skills I had in designing websites directly applicable to designing ebooks, and am very glad I had that background.
