I've bought a few Perl books besides these, but these are
the ones that really helped:
- Learning Perl -- great intro, best way to start
- Programming Perl -- learn the more advanced concepts.
- Effective Perl Programming -- stop coding in PERL, and give Perl a try.
- Perl Cookbook -- great reference for many common problems.
- Programming the Perl DBI -- if you're using a database.
- Ojbect Oriented Perl -- great way to learn about OO in Perl.
- Perl 5 Pocket Reference -- when you can't remember, look it up.
There are a lot more I want, but have to wait in my large wanted-books queue:
- Mastering Algorithms with Perl
- Data Munging with Perl
- Mastering Regular Expressions
- Perl for System Administration -- borrowed it
- Advanced Perl Programming
- Mastering Perl/Tk
- CGI Programmming with Perl -- borrowed it
- Network Programming In Perl -- borrowed it

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
