Printed / on-line resources on Linux history


I was wondering if are there any books (if available in the web, better) on Linux and free software history.
I know Peter H. Saulus' "The daemon, the gnu and the penguin". I'm searching some other book on that subject. Any advice?

Thanks a lot,
Matías

Are you talking about Linux (The kernel) or GNU? In case you mean GNU you can get a nice overview here: About the GNU Project. There's a book mentioned at the beginning of the piece. You can also use the links in my sig to source info.

Nexus, thanks for the info!
I was talking about both GNU / Linux and BSD history also.

Following your links I found the book "Open sources": http://oreilly.com/catalog/opensources/book/toc.html
