Algorithms in C is a classic, Algorithms in Foo is, sadly, not. Sedgewick's text, much like Appel's compiler text, is a one-language book with a bad gettext translation for other programming languages.
Read Sedgewick in C and Appel in ML. Skip the C++, Java, and C# versions of both books, they usually pop up in bookstores at the end of summer.
