There was indeed a lot of linear algebra in it. That part was easier for me, as I had already studied LA before taking that class. Like I said, I had no dealings with QM after I graduated. Maybe your memory is better than mine from 40 years ago?
The only QM book that I have studied is David Griffiths', but ladder operators figure prominently in QM.
Eisberg and Resnik is a very good book for the undergraduate level.
