Rohl books on Pascal gets a thumbs up from me.
Despite being a student at the same university, I never intersected with him. After I left there, I bought his Pascal book trilogy circa 1984 to teach myself Pascal (using CP/M Turbo Pascal). I kept them for years but must have parted with them sometime long ago.
Nonetheless, my conception of vital programming concepts - especially recursion - came from his writing.
