1.0 out of 5 stars Quick and Dumb, 22 Jul 1998
By A Customer
All very sketchy and definitely not something that will take you all the way through any part of the Linux system. Even as a new user, I was finding holes in the instructions (weakest areas: setting up e-mail, online connections)and the author's obvious biases (one page on Emacs, but six or seven on vi). It has some useful references for the well-known commands, but even if that's all you want, you'd be better off buying a more complete reference work.
