Rating:  - Very useful
This book provided a solid resource to start writing shell scripts in bash. It is well written, and also provides understanding into some bash features that go beyond just a reference book.
Rating:  - Outstanding in every way
I first bought this book over 12 years ago, and I still use it as the standard by which other books are measured. It must be one of my top 5 favorite computer books, ever.
The author clearly understands the material, and makes it approachable, direct, and easy to learn without being too light or condescending. I wish the same could be said of Java books.
"Learning the bash Shell" is the right size and right price, too. Perfect in every way.
O'Reilly kind of took a turn for the worse in the late '90s / early 2000s, but this was originally published back when they were good the first time. (They've since recovered, IMO)
If you have need to learn the bash shell, you can't go wrong with this one.

Rating: - Great book
I have owned this book for awhile, and over the years it has been my only reference to the bash shell I have felt a need for.
The only down points I have seen in this book is that some of the info seems to be seperated out a bit, making some info hard to find at times (although if you have a hard time using an index, well, bash may be a bit advanced for you), but everything is covered well, and the appendixes are fairly good.
Rating: - It's a book on shell scripting
More than you ever wanted to learn about the bash shell. Good reference for sysadmins.
