Much of it (all of it?) is presented by Philip Smith, and he's a sufficiently entertaining speaker that it's worth watching even if you are already a bgp "expert". As for books — I used to buy a copy of "BGP4: Inter-Domain Routing in the Internet" by John W Stewart for all of my new hires — https://amzn.to/3VdqdfK . It's really short and sweet, and covers just the stuff that you need to know. It is old at this point (1998!), but still well worth the read. W > Steve >
