'The Python Book' would have to be the Python book ('Programming Python', cuz it has a python on the cover and covers the python language, brilliant!....) It's huge and is full of great scripts and, most importantly, promotes good coding style. Hopefully they've updated the index tho, since the 2nd edition has an utterly pathetic index, tho you can still find what you want pretty quickly with just the toc.
Python Cookbook is necessary because it covers so many little hidden secrets of python. The section on dateutil is worth the price of the book alone. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
