Because of cost, I may opt for phonegap because I am a beginner and I can't afford to procure the xamarin studio now. Can you assist with a book on phonegap.

Thank you

No...I don't think that is possible.You have to go with xamarin tools in order to built cross-platform mobile applications
Here are some of the reasons, why we should go with Xamarin:
Seamless API Integration Capability
Easy Collaboration & Sharing
Coding Advantages of C#
Rapid Development
Cost-Effective
