I mostly use the little "MS-DOS 6.2 Quick Reference" by
Sally Neuman (Que), ($7.99 from www.Amazon.com) for reference.
For explanations, along with Norton's book ($24 from
www.Amazon.com), I like Mark Minasi's "Inside MS-DOS 6.22"
available from New Rider's Publishing. ($32 from www.Amazon.com
or www.Clbooks.com)
(Minasi and Norton are my two favorite authors for explaining
DOS, Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.)

Bill
