    My favorite Modula-2 book is "Modula-2 for Pascal Programmers" by Richard
Gleaves (Springer-Verlag, ISBN 0-387-96051-1).  It clears up a lot of
ambiguities left by Wirth, and quite a few examples show some really neat
stuff you can use Modula-2 for.  It is oriented toward programmers who
already know Pascal.

    Disclaimer: Rich Gleaves was my roommate until a few weeks ago.  But I
wouldn't plug it if it wasn't a good book.  It got great reviews in its
previous incarnation, which was the Volition Systems Modula-2 manual.
