A gentle guide for R itself from http://cran.r-project.org/other-docs.html
is: "A Guide for the Unwilling S User" by Patrick Burns, where S is a
general name for R or S-PLUS. There are plenty of others there. For
getting the raster layers from GRASS to R, please see the help page of the
interface function rast.get() - type help(rast.get) at the R prompt after
loading the library with library(GRASS). There are plenty of examples on:
http://grass.itc.it/statsgrass/grass_r_interface.html, and on its link to
"Learning R".
Good luck!
