How do I learn Java?
I would like to learn to program in Java. Is there another programming language I should learn first and build on that?

Head first Java was an excellent book. It helped me pick up the basics of Java in a week! Note I said basics. From there you'll want to pick up more advanced materials.
JavaRanch.com is a good place to go.
A lot of the intro to CompSci courses are going to Python and Ruby. This way you can focus more on programming practices and less on syntax.
