When I was trying to learn C, I went through many books, most were
worthless as they jumped from programs that were idiot-simple to ones
that were brain-numbingly complex(for the beginner). One excellent
book (the one I learned most of my knowledge of C from), is The Waite
Group's C Programming Using Turbo C++, Second Edition (ISBN
0-672-30399-X). Although it is meant for Turbo C++, most of the
examples will compile under any decent compiler. Just skip over the
Turbo C specific stuff (The graphics functions, which is only one out
of fifteen chapters anyway).
