With Teach Yourself Linux, readers will learn to set up a Linux system, add applications, make things happen automatically, connect to the Internet, share files with other systems, and even apply the basics of programming. The combination of extensive instructions, practical examples, and interactive exercises will help users at all skill levels master everything from simple commands to setting up their own Web servers.

Good overview for the beginner

Like the author of this little gem, I also have decades of computer experience. I began by
teaching myself FORTRAN on an IBM 1620 in the mid-60’s. Since then I have written
lots of 8-bit machine code, but most of my work has been with high-level languages. Now
in my dotage I have set a personal goal to teach myself Linux. So I started with Sams Teach
Yourself Linux in 24 Hours. It was ok to get the feel of Linux, but in the end it was too much of a formula cookbook.
About mid-way through the book I lost interest and let it go. Then I tried Marcel Gagne’s Moving to
Linux. Although the bundled Koppix CD was fun to play around with, the book never
got much beyond the GUI desktop. I was looking for a reference that would give a better
overall view of how Linux works and what I could expect from it. I think Billing’s book may be
the one. I found it on the new book shelf at the library and read it pretty much straight through.
As a Linux newbie I won’t know for sure whether the book is really that good until I get
my own sea legs (and then I won’t need it any more!) But for now I think it fit my needs perfectly.
I enjoyed reading it and plan to buy my own copy as soon as the library forces me to give back the one
I borrowed.
