    The easiest book for linear algebra that I know about is Elementary Linear Algebra by Anton.

    Also take a look at http://www.khanacademy.org/#linear-algebra, but remember to look at them in order! (go through first column first)

    Thats a plus one for Elementary Linear Algebra. Excellent book.

    You might like to check out this guy too. Personally I prefer his videos to Khan academy.
