I am looking for any good book(s) on Unix and/or Xenix.  I am very MSDOS
proficient but have never had a real reason to use Unix and want to see
what it is all about.  I am particularly interested in books that go into
slightly more detail than "ls is a the Unix equivalent of DOS's dir function"
but don't get too intense too soon (although any well written book is worth
it to me).  If some of you Unix wizards could suggest some titles and your
reasons for liking a specific book over others it would be appreciated.
