You can download it as a pdf from CTAN.


>	Hello again everybody. This one is a little off topic: 
>instead about TeX on Mac OS X is more about learning LaTeX. Short 
>one: which book would anyone here recommend for learning general 
>LaTeX typesetting skills? I've heard the two kings are Lamport's 
>book and Kopka's "A Guide To LaTeX". Which others for general LaTeX 
>would you recommend? If these were the only two choices, which would 
>you pick, why, how would you compare them?
>
>	Well, those were quite a few questions fur such a little 
>paragraph! I hope that someone can give me some advice since I'm 
>really needing reading material. Actually my situation is a bit more 
>tight than that: I made the mistake of ordering Kopka's book off of 
>Amazon before consulting, but since it hasn't shipped yet I still 
>have the option to cancel the order and change it if Kopka'a readers 
>don't speak so well of his production!
