I can recommend the OpenGL Super Bible. Again it doesn't use Qt directly but
to be honest that is no problem. Porting the examples to QGLWidget is trivial.
I have the 4th edition which covers the legacy fixed function pipe-line and
then moves onto the new shader-based pipe-line. I think the new 5th edition
dives straight into the shader-based way of things since the legacy is stuff
is being deprecated.
Well worth the investment.
Have fun,
Sean
