A good general reference is Spiegel, Lipschutz & Spellman (2009). A short summary about vectors by Martin John Baker can be accessed on the Web. A good introduction to vectors in Physics can be found in French (1971). Two good references that introduce vectors in the context of Computer Graphics are Farin (1988) and Vince (2010). The properties of vector operations are well explained in Leung (1994). Good problems about forces can be found in Meriam & Kraige (1998).
