Here are some books that deal with the history of Unix and its early days. Life_with_Unix.pdf ------------------ In January 2016, Don Libes and Sandy Ressler donated a copy of their wonderful book to the archive. Sandy's e-mail says: Don forwarded your email about getting an electronic copy of Life with Unix...it's attached as a PDF! It should be cool to make it available (and Don and I agree that is fine)...we also at some point a few years ago got Prentice-Hall to give us the copyright or to at least say do whatever you want with it. Of course I can't find that email but it should be fine. There are of course illustrations in the book that are copyright by others that we obtained permission to use in the book so we can't give permission for those...however I doubt that would be a real issue with anyone....so feel free to use this in your archive...take care...Sandy PS this is probably a pdf of the very first version/printing of the book with no subsequent corrections In 2017, Russell Page donated Life_with_Unix_v2.pdf, saying: I downloaded "Life with UNIX" today and attacked it with an ancient copy of Acrobat 8 Professional. I've aligned the page numbers the viewer displays with the numbers printed on the pages and on the Contents page, and added a bookmark/outline tree. I've checked everything in the latest Acrobat and Sumatra readers and it all looks OK. In principal I could also add hyperlinks from the contents page to the text headings. In practice, this is a very error prone and tedious process, so I didn't bother. Please feel free to put it up on your great web site.
