My advice is similar to the one that gets given to prospective Python
programmers:  start with the source - K&R (Kernighan & Ritchie). It's
kind of similar to the Python tutorial in ways: concise but completely
to the point, from people who know why the language was written that
way. This is what everyone learned the language from in the early
days. Stay away from those 1000-page doorstops with CDroms included.
