I've been fortunate enough to work with someone I will, for the time being,
dub a linux guru, and he recommended three books from O'Reilly and
Associates:

Running Linux - 3rd Edition
Linux in a Nutshell - 2nd Edition
Linux Network Administrators Guide - Mostly for when you get around to
having to support it in a production environment if you do that sort of
thing for work.

I have found all of them to be excellent.  Some of the info is a little
dated, and they don't pertain to any specific distro, but they are filled
with great information.

I got them at www.fatbrain.com

Not too expensive either...I think I got all three for about $30.00.......

Subject: [newbie] question for the experts


I have a fairly simple question. I'm very new to linux, mandrake being my
first dist. What reading resources would the experts recomend? I'm
purchasing Linux for Dummies tomorrow but what else might be of assistance.
