iOS Succinctly

iOS Succinctly is for developers looking to step into the sometimes frightening world of iPhone and iPad app development. Written as the companion to Objective-C Succinctly, this e-book guides you from creating a simple, single page application to managing assets in a complex, multi-scene application. Advanced features such as localizing application UI, and working with the Audio Toolbox and AVAudioPlayer frameworks are also covered.

If you're looking for the fastest way to get up and running with iOS development, forget about the 1,500+ pages of documentation in the iOS Developer Library. This is the only resource you need.
