I cut my teeth on the Llama book (or alpaca, or whatever the heck that
is) (http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/lperl3/).
I already knew C/C++ though.
If he doesn't need to program, though, he'd probably be better served
by reading something like the "owl" book
http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/lunix5/. There's another one with a
funky little monkey-rodent on the cover which is a great reference.
But the owl will take him through learning things like sed, grep, tar,
and the like.
PS: I don't work for neither am I affiliated with O'Rielly in any way.
I just tend to use their books.
