It was also the _first_ book on the C language.

There are several books focusing on SQLite. I have a pretty good one from 
O'Reilly somewhere. There is probably a website somewhere that has a search 
field where you can type "SQLite" and find a list of books. Maybe such a site 
could even ship you a book.

Microsoft is one of the largest companies in the world, and must certainly have 
thousands of tech writers and editors.

SQLite has, AFAIK, _two_ employees (Richard and Dan). Both of them are coders. 
Asking them to put part of their time into writing SQL examples would be 
tragic. And they probably don't have the money to hire tech writers.
