Well, one problem is that a book on say, RedHat, isn't going to help
that much with Ubuntu. 
However, there is a free book online, do a google for the Rute book.
It's downloadable as a PDF, I believe.

Also, on the Linux Documentation Project site, there's an old book,
something like Installing and Running Linux, by Matt Walsh.  The
installation section is way out of date, but then, there's a section on
basic shell commands which is still quite useful.

Cordelia: I came over here to tell Buffy to stop this
craziness, and 
found you all unconscious--again. How many times have you been
knocked out, anyway? I swear, one of these times, you're going
to wake up in a coma.
Giles: Wake up in a...? Oh, never mind. We need to save Buffy from 
Hansel and Gretel.
Cordelia: Now, let's be clear. The brain damage happened before I hit
you.
