in reply to So what is your Perl book "Trilogy" anyway?
My three favourite Perl books:
- Camel (Programming Perl)
- Shiny Ball (Effective Perl Programming)
- Staghound (Perl Best Practices)
See also:
- perl.org free online Perl books
- Book Reviews (Perl Monks Book Reviews section)
For a long list of links for getting started with Perl see:
Extra Book References Added Later
Some Perl book lists:
- learn.perl.org - basic book list (see especially Learning Perl by merlyn)
- perl.org - longer book list (all books mostly free)
- 50 Best Perl Books of All Time - bookauthority.org (suspect commercial Perl book list)
Some Perl book and other recommendations:
- Modern Perl - by chromatic, fantastic free intro to Perl for decent programmers who are not familiar with perl (not sure current status of modernperlbooks.com)
- perlmaven (by szabgab - lots of good free stuff here)
- Perl Taster (Kindle) (by davorg - not free but very cheap)
- Effective Perl Programming by brian d foy et al
- Minimal Perl by Tim Maher
