BIBLIOGRAPHY

This bibliography contains two types of books: those I use as my own reference and those I’ve written that you can consult for more information.

Books I've Written

Over the last 10 years, FreeBSD has grown. A lot. In writing Absolute FreeBSD, I attempted to strike a balance between explaining everything and writing a book small enough to hold in your hand. ZFS, for example, merits a book the size of this one. I’ve tried to give you what you must know instead of everything there is to know.

You’ll want more on some topics. I’ve written books that can give you that more. Mixing them in with the regular bibliography felt way too self-aggrandizing, so here’s a separate list.
