I recently started reading Sedgewick's Algorithms book ("the
red one") and am at least making an attempt to follow along
with his Coursera course. As someone who has also been trying
to learn Clojure, it struck me that it would be great to have a
resource/book on functional versions of all the same
algorithms. I know there are Clojure implementations of many,
if not all, of the algorithms in the book (for example I found
an [1]implementation of union-find on github), but it would be
nice to have a self-contained functional version of an
"Algorithms" book.

I guess my question boils down to this. Is there a functional
algorithms book aimed at the beginning/intermediate CS
undergraduate curriculum? If not, seems to me that would be a
big hole that needs to be filled.

It's not quite what you're looking for, but Osaki's Purely
Functional Data Structures might be of interest to you. It
obviously covers data structures, but also operations on the
data structures.
