itzhak bars' book on QM, it looks promising, but beware it weighs 10.25 MB, here:

You've given a link to an incomplete document. Even if the book was complete, i still think Gallindo and Pascual, Manoukian and Ballentine have written better books.

But you can't download them from the web for free, without violating copyright, can you?

What use would it do, if what you download is not complete ?

I like the symmetries and angular momentum treatment in Bars, nevertheless...

Well, here's some more QM lecture notes.
http://www.maths.dur.ac.uk/~dma0wjz/QM/ [It's a postscript document]
The author emphasises that the reader be strong in linear algebra.

i still think you can learn from this quite a bit.
the three chapters that are missing there, are chapters of advanced QM.
so you still can learn the undergraduate QM from this text.

may find many book in quantum or classical mechanics and some video's under this tital , but generally : it is oldest material.
