I am not familiar with these books, I learnt from K&R and I'd recommend you do the same. Once you've gone through the book and the exercises you can studying/modifying modern C code. If you are going to do UNIX programming then study APUE by Richard Stevens. The Practice of Programming by Kernighan and Pike can be studied on the side.
