Today at PCBurn we're taking a look at Mark G. Sobell's "A Practical Guide to Linux Commands, Editors, and Shell Programming". It aims to be a complete learning and reference guide to the Linux shell. We'll take a look at the salient points that a reference and teaching book should cover and see how "A Practical Guide..." addresses them.

I think I'm going to pick this book up in a couple days. I've been reading the o'reilly book "Classic Shell Scripting" for a couple weeks, and I've found it to be about as far as it gets from practical, considering the layout of the information contained within.
I hope this book can deliver on that title, because if it does it would be a big help to a relative newbie like me.
