Good First Golang Book

I am sure that other readers of this text with think more highly of it then me.

If you loved "Programming in C" by K&R then you will love this book. Personally, imo, it is an overrated text and this book is in the exact same identical style and suffers from the exact same problems. Terseness and lack of enough detail for my liking. However it does serve as a good introduction to the subject while other golang books cover the golang style of programming (the idioms of the language) it only briefly touches some of these.

I prefer a less terse and deeper text even for a beginner's first Go book but I do own two copies of it and EVERY golang library should have this text.

Now to this specific volume, the Paperback, excellent quality at an excellent price and highly recommended for your technical library.

Great Book, nice price

At first I was concerned this was an International copy, but this is wonderful. It was $10 cheaper than same book USA and it was shipped very fast. The content of the book is great for a new person and for a person converting over to Go Lang. Written by very knowledgeable people as well.Read full review

Go from the source Go learning book

This is a great book to learn about Go from the creators of the language. This explains Go in detail. Note that this is not a tutorial book. However, it gives an invaluable inside look at Go.
