8.Linux: 5 Books in 1- Bible of 5 Manuscripts in 1- Beginner's Guide+ Tips and Tricks+ Effective Strategies+ Best Practices to learn Linux Programming Efficiently+ Advanced Strategies
Author: Daniel Jones
Publisher: Independently published (October 13, 2018)
This truly is the ultimate beginners guide to linux and there is written a well constructed guide book in which the author has described the term linux and inside this guide book mentioned installation, configuration and command line basics and it provides an overall description to Linux with some explanations of the kernel and the various distributions. and i recommend it as a book to provide a basis for further explorations into Linux and It doesn't really go into detail about what each technical term means or the processes behind them, but that kind of detail can confuse beginners and after reading this book I at least know of the terms and what they are meant to do and i would say you need some basic knowledge of electronics, like the different name and function of computer parts, in order to understand the book.

Great list, John. I read 'Linux Command and Shell Scripting Bible' a couple of years ago, and it was an excellent useful book.
Thanks for sharing it 😊
