I think you'll find the Kernigan + Richie (sp? i usually just say
"K&R" :-)   latest edition is very good.  It's the one that deals
with ANSI C.  I saw it when I was over there (over the Atlantic
that is) in Dallas, and wish I'd bought it, because it was nearly
half the price we have to pay for it in England!
