I read this one on Saturday (bought it from Amazon after I saw it posted here earlier in the week). It's very good at detailing how UNIX was developed in the early days and how it exploded after 1979 with V7 - and in a way that isn't difficult to read whatsoever. There are some sections about the inner workings of UNIX I already knew - but skimming through those allowed me to catch a few historical gems I didn't know.
