1) Paperback Book Linux Pocket Guide by O´Reilly Media, Inc.. While this may be an excellent reference for experienced Linux users, it will be of very limited use for beginners or those who use Linux through a graphical interface. It is also specifically directed towards Fedora. It would be helpful if your descriptive blurb on the book revealed these two facts.¤

2) Paperback Book Linux Pocket Guide by O´Reilly Media, Inc.. I´m relatively new to linux and this is a great book to have handy. Very small and tightly packed with easy to find commands and examples. Great tool and good price.¤

3) Paperback Book Linux Pocket Guide by O´Reilly Media, Inc.. A pocket sized guide to the essential commands of Linux. While specific to an older version of Fedora, this is still a very handy reference. All the essential commands are covered and explained.

This is a small book with a limited purpose and it acheives its goals. More or less indispensable for the Linux user.

4) Paperback Book Linux Pocket Guide by O´Reilly Media, Inc.. This is definitely a great companion for any Linux administrator or hobbyist who is trying to become a level 60 command line warrior. There are plenty of commands to familiarize yourself with, and they are grouped logically (rather than alphabetically), which means that when you look up a command, you can find other similar commands in the same section. This book was written with Fedora Core Linux in mind, so it may not cover some of the commands unique to other Linux distros.¤

5) Paperback Book Linux Pocket Guide by O´Reilly Media, Inc.. These book includes most used unix commands. One step more explanatory than man pages. With its small size, it´s very appropriate for reading while travelling with bus or metro.
But this is not a complete reference book, for advanced users.¤

6) Paperback Book Linux Pocket Guide by O´Reilly Media, Inc.. O´Reilly´s Pocket Guides have earned a reputation as inexpensive, comprehensive, and compact guides that have the stuff but not the fluff. Every page of Linux Pocket Guide lives up to this billing. It clearly explains how to get up to speed quickly on day-to-day Linux use. Once you´re up and running, Linux Pocket Guide provides an easy-to-use reference that you can keep by your keyboard for those times when you want a fast, useful answer, not hours in the man pages. Linux Pocket Guide is organized the way you use Linux: by function, not just alphabetically. It´s not the ´bible of Linux; it´s a practical and concise guide to the options and commands you need most. It starts with general concepts like files and directories, the shell, and X windows, and then presents detailed overviews of the most essential commands, with clear examples. You´ll learn each command´s purpose, usage, options, location on disk, and even the RPM package that installed it. The Linux Pocket Guide is tailored to Fedora Linux--the latest spin-off of Red Hat Linux--but most of the information applies to any Linux system. Throw in a host of valuable power user tips and a friendly and accessible style, and you´ll quickly find this practical, to-the-point book a small but mighty resource for Linux users.¤
