I agree with Rick. "Core Python Programming" by Chun is pretty good. However, Lutz's "Programming Python" is also very good and has a few big example programs to walk through. You might also find the Python Cookbooks handy. There's also "Python Power!" by Matt Telles, which is more of a reference book although not quite as dry as "Python Essential Reference" was.
