I used the ARRL books to study from, and I took practice tests at http://www.qrz.com/p/testing.pl. I’d give you my books, but the question pools have changed and while they’d be a good starting point, you’d be better off investing in your own copy of the books. I recommend “Now You’re Talking” for the Technician written, and “The General Class License Manual” for General. As much a fan as I am of free and/or online stuff, I think the books are worthwhile.
For taking tests, in addition to the link above, http://www.aa9pw.com/radio/ is very good in that the test there is more like the actual tests. (The qrz.com ones give you immediate feedback, which is fine, but the aa9pw.com one is more like the real test in that you have to take the whole test first. I think it makes you work a bit harder.)
There are also tests at http://www.w8mhb.com/exam/ which at a quick glance looks pretty good too, but I’ve never really gone though it much.
I’d say for practice tests, the aa9pw.com site might be a bit better than qrz.com (aa9pw.com didn’t exist when I was studying).
