I can't overstate how great Coherent and this pale green book were. It was a complete UNIX experience and taught me valuable skills that I use to this day. The manual is probably the best organized and most comprehensive one that I've seen for ANY software to this day. I still don't know how Mark Williams Company pulled off this amazing feat with such limited resources. To anyone who was involved with its production - thank you and much respect.

Similar with me. I was loving using UNIX at work on Suns ~1991/2, but it wasn't until I borrowed a PC with Coherent for a few weeks that I really was able to explore it properly, both in the sense of being to work as root, and having this excellent book. I was sad when I had to give the PC back, until Linux hit the scene a little while later.
