[rescue] looking for used old-school UNIX books

[Andrew Weiss]

So what is a good textbook for someone who knows general structure but 
needs thorough syntax review.  I have the K&R book and am currently 
going through it, ... it goes slightly too fast for comfort even though 
I can follow it... but... the exercises are way too big of a jump for 
me... I feel too lazy to do them because they involve a lot of 
improvisation/outside knowledge.
