	Can anyone recommend an introduction to programming book that uses C?
I'm not referring to C-For-Pascal-Programmers etc. kind of books.  I'm aware
that most introduction to programming books use Pascal, Basic, or Scheme as
their language, but I haven't seen anybooks that start a novice out directly
with C.
	The purpose of this is to help someone I know who intends to teach an
introduction to programming class in C (it was formerly taught in Pascal).

I'll post the summary if people will send me e-mail.
Thanks,
James
