There's now been over 15 reviews of my new book, Backup & Recovery (Buy It), so I thought I'd put links to them all in one place.
This is every review of the book I can find. I promise it's not just the good ones.
If I get any others, I'll add them to this list as well. This book was quite a labor of love, and I am quite proud of what we came up with. (About 60-70% of the book is written by yours truly, but 30-40% of it was written by 16 other contributors who were experts in particular areas.)
For those of you that own the original book, you should know that this book has about 75% new content and gives special emphasis on inexpensive ways to backup your desktops and servers.
Enough of me talking about my own book, read what others had to say:
- Free Software Magazine
- Unix Review Magazine
- Storage Magazine
- Linux Tutorial Info
- lian's Chips and Tech
- Kick Start News
- Locker Gnome
- Danny's Book Reviews
- Several reviews on Amazon.com
- User reviews on Oreilly's web site
- UK's Unix & Open System User Group
- Rob Slade Book Reviews
Did I mention that you should buy It already? I've got a teenager who loves Abercrombie. ๐

I made a slight review of your book at http://www.trickykid.org/article/oreillys-backup-and-recovery a long time ago after ordering it online. It’s a great resource and I keep it near by always since I’m always the “backup” guy at every job I end up at.
You mention in the article that you had ordered it and would post a review of it after you got it. Will you be doing that soon, or is it like the white whale that is my next book? ๐
