Yesterday I received Unix Internals: The New Frontiers by Uresh Vahalia. The book was written in 1996 -- so Linux is not mentioned.
Interesting trivia learned from this book is that C evolved from the earlier language called BCPL [Rich 82], later known as B, an interpretative language that C replaced as it was better.
