"Oh Pascal" reminded me of a book titled, "Oh! Pascal!" by Doug Cooper. I used it to learn Pascal.

Best programming book I ever read. His later "Condensed Pascal" isn't quite as good -- a little too, well, condensed. Too bad that's the only one I could find to buy after having had to return Oh, Pascal to the city library.

(OK, it's hard to compare; Code Complete and other much later stuff might be just as good. Too many decades between when I read them to say for sure.)
