I'm trying to understand if this position can be drawn with best play by black. What do you think?

White is a knight up but will have to trade b-pawns to make progress. I think it may be possible for black to set up a fortress on the kingside despite being a pawn down. Black does however have to avoid a knight sac for a pawn along with a rook trade, which would lead to a lost king and pawn endgame.
Also, do you know any reference material that discusses R+N+PPP vs R+PPP endgames?
Cheers.
