Books To Get Started W/ SEO

[sutherland]

Figured to help new people, everyone could list the first book (or books) they read about SEO.  This way people that have never done this can check up and see if any of these books can be found cheap or at the library or something.  Anyway, the first book I read related to SEO was Search Engine Optimization For Dummies.  You can find it here if anyone's interested in buying- http://www.amazon.com/Search-Engine-Optimization-Dummies-Peter/dp/0764567586
