Photo of two books next to eachother on a wooden chair. On the left is “The C Programming Language, Second Edition” by Brian W. Kernighan and Dennis M. Ritchie. On the right is “The Real Book C, Sixth Edition”. The book on the left has a huge blue letter C in the centre of the cover, a red “ANSI C” stamp, and a white background. The book on the right has a cream cover with an ornate border, and the text (all black) is written in a funky style. The book on the left is a paperback, and the book on the right is a plastic comb bound book, and notably larger and thicker in all dimensions.

K&R are where I started, so I'm backing that side.
