The book
Moving to Ubuntu linux
by  Marcel Gangne'
Addison Wesley  date 2007
isbn 0-321-42722X

UK 25 pounds
This is a very good early beginners book. It comes with a dvd 6.06 LTS
450 pages approx

I have it for curiosity and I am impressed at how smoothly it takes 
the reader into linux land and also in a comforting way.
