Filezilla is third-party software; they provide documentation/user manual online here:
http://filezilla.sourceforge.net/documentation/
See the section called "Using Filezilla", and then click the plus + sign/s to view links to subtopics.

Double-click on the public_html folder in the Remote side. Inside the public_html directory is where you need to upload your files to. If your file/s or directory/ies are uploaded successfully, you will see them there.

You can also use the File Manager in your hosting cPanel to view what is in your public_html directory.

And, if the file is not protected by restricted-access, you can also try to browse to the file. For example if you create a new folder called yournewfolder inside public_html, and your ebook itself is called ebook.rtf, then you should be able to browse to http://yournewsitename.com/yournewfolder/ebook.rtf. Remember you will probably want to password-protect the yournewfolder directory however, since any file you can access by browsing can also be accessed by anyone else the same way. (see cPanel Password Protect Directories to protect folders and their contents)
