If, like myself, you find reference books useful, you may want to get a
copy of "Linux in a Nutshell" - an O'Reilly book.

It tends to assume you know at least one other OS fairly well, is well
organised and concise. I've also found "Debian Reference"

  http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-reference/

useful for most flavours of Linux (I use Fedora and Raspbian)

There was also a "Unix in a Nutshell". I found it amusing, in my NetWare days, to have a copy on my desk and offer it to the Unix-oids that meanered in from time to time, that liked to scoff at "security by obscurity" and those "Puny PC's you call Servers". (That from folks that swore sendmail was forever king and operated the email server as an open relay).

A bit of an issue when I offered that the book should be called "Nuts, in a Unix Shell". . . Ah, the memories . . .
