This pocket guide isn’t worth the paper it is printed on. It is primarily for a Fedora/Red Hat distro and really doesn’t do a good job at describing the command uses. I have been teaching Linux for eight years and have been using Linux since the mid 90’s. I have switched to the Linux Phrasebook by Scott Granneman. It is a much better guidebook for administrators and people learning how to use Linux. If you want to have a much more complete understanding than a reprint of the man pages, check out the Linux Phrasebook. My students use it and have a better understanding of the command syntax and usage without asking me a lot of questions like they did when they relied on the man pages.
I have used this book (Linux Pocket Guide) in the past, but since 2006 I have recommended and required the Linux Phrasebook!
