Might want to check out "HDL Chip Design" by Douglas H. Smith.

Teaches Verilog, VHDL, and shows the schematic equivalent next to the
code.

One suggestion, always write your synthesizable code from the examples
given by the tool vendors.  Both VHDL and Verilog will compile and
simulate code that can no be synthesized.  So design your hardware
first, as a block diagram or in any other form that lets you see the
registers and blocks of logic.  Then write your code using the examples
the vendors provide for the various blocks in your diagram.  

When used to build hardware, HDLs are not programming languages.  They
are hardware description languages, hence HDL, not HPL.

Thanks Jim,

I know that Verilog is not VHDL. I was just trying to point out that I 
don't have that background either.

I am using Verilog because a portion of my project was already written in 
Verilog by someone else.

Al,
Also note that Verilog /= VHDL

If you are interested in VHDL, I like:
A VHDL Primer by J Bhasker.

Cheers,
Jim

I recommend Verilog HDL by Samir Palnitkar. It is the best Verilog book
for a beginner (people who never been exposed to HDLs but familiar with
logic design). The author explains exactly what's going on in each line
of the code. Other authors usually just give you a bunch of examples
without explanation. The book helped me to complete my projects with
great success.
For more explanation please see my review at amazon.com.

I want to learn Verilog for small FPGA degigns. I don't have a background 
in VHDL but I am an experienced designer. For simple designs, I have used 
the schematic capture method.  

What do you guys recommend?
