The book class may be enough for you.  In org, it is trivial to
use.  Simply put the line

#+latex_class: book

in your org file and export to pdf (C-c C-e l p).  Top level headlines
are parts, second level headlines are chapters, third level headlines
are section headings, etc.

I've attached a very small org file and the resulting PDF.

If you need to customise the output, you can look at the settings of
org-latex-classes.  If you have any specific needs, just ask here!
