The command "perldoc" bootstraps you quite well.
(I.e. tells about the "-h" option and "perldoc perldoc".)
Otherwise, check if the Perl documentation is installed as man pages. (The Activestate html implementation is nice, as previous poster wrote.)
Note:
That is strict internal documentation for Perl. You really need to get a few books and e.g. read tutorials on this site (which have an how-to-learn part) and articles at Perl.com.
(Second take: You used the term "perldoc", which is a specific part of Perl documentation. It seems, on consideration, as if you asked for "Perl documentation". Start with the "Tutorials" linked at the top of the page. They are quite good, IMHO.)
