That's actually a very good idea. You really can't go wrong going that route.
In addition to the book you mentioned above, here's another recent book on Fortran that is very good: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1107603471/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I learned fortran using these two books
Since then I've used the following books as well
I don't have any preference for one over the other, except the first two which were good for learning the basics and the quirks to fortran programming (at a national lab you'll likely be reading legacy code that's written in fortran 77 and things like do-loops are very different from fortran 90 onward).
For example, a do-loop in 77 looks like (the spaces at the beginning of each line are important):
>(6 spaces)DO 70 ICNT=1,XXX
>
>(6 spaces) statement1
>
>(6 spaces) statement2
>
>(6 spaces) ...
>
>70 CONTINUE
Whereas in 90 onward:
>do icnt=0,xxx
>
>
> statement1
>
> statement2
>
> ...
>
>end do
