I have and would recommend Beginning Linux Programming.  All the basics in
useful bitesized projects.  The C shell, C, and other common useful
environments are shown through concise examples.  Fun for the evenings and
weekends.  Perfect for learning the framework and how everything fits
together in the Linux system quickly.
