Author Book recommendation

Can someone give me a good book recommendation to learn Linux? I have Linux-Mandrake 7.2 at home and I'm going to do a dual boot on my system with Win 98. I need a good book so I can prepare myself for Linux+.

"Runninf Linux" by Welsh, Dalheimer and Kaufman is the best all around book. try to get something like "Mandrake Unleashed" that goes into the details of your distro as well. Will save you a lot of headaches. Besy of luck.

It's not Mandrake, but I am reading/using "The complete reference Linux 4th Edition" by Petersen. Comes with RH7 and Caldera on cd. So far I've found the book to be good at the basics.
