From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

If you’re aiming to elevate your Linux learning process to an advanced administrative and expert level, we have meticulously curated a collection of 10 exceptional Free Linux eBooks.

These invaluable resources are designed to empower you in constructing an exceptionally robust foundation for your Linux skills. With these ebooks at your fingertips, you can confidently embark on a journey of profound Linux mastery.

Only one of the 10 books requires some registration for free access. The other 9 books are just click to download. Most of the books start at an introductory level, and what I really like about books versus Internet searches, is that reading a book is a more structured and logical process for building knowledge. You'll get a lot more value from actually reading these books, versus just doing searches to try to put many pieces of a puzzle together yourself.

The titles are:

The Ultimate Linux Newbie Guide
The Linux Command Line
GNU/Linux Command−Line Tools
Introduction to Linux
Linux Fundamentals
Linux Networking
GNU/Linux Advanced Linux Administration
Linux Shell Scripting Cookbook (trial subscription needed)
Bash Reference Manual from GNU
Advanced Bash Shell Scripting Guide
