This is a handy link, thanks. Not as convenient as having your own ebook, but free.

The first resources I would recommend to a beginner →

Linux Linx 2016

IBM's Learn Linux, 101 Tutorials

Rescatux CD: A tool everyone should have (includes SuperGrub2 and gparted)]

Arch wiki

For Ubuntu-based distros → Ubuntu Help wiki
Linux Beginners Search Engine

TxLonghorn,

An excellent set of links.

On reflection, do you not think that a Linux novice might be just a tad overwhelmed by this comprehensive list of first Linux resources and instead seek refuge in the hands of the Gates emporium?

The Arch wiki on its own might be enough to frighten the proverbial out of him/her.

Can the Linux novice expect a second, even more comprehensive, set of resources?

Thumbs up for Rescatux.

more important then what the links may teach the timmid newbie, is what said newbie's, and others really need to learn is how TxLonghorn actually prefomred this most difficult and complicated task of searching the web to find said links that others may find useful.

Perhaps kind @TxLonghorn will share this most valuable hidden knowleadge in a deadicated how to section, complete with easy to read step by step instructions
then have it made a sticky.
