Books On The History Of The Free Software Movement?

Posted by Cliff on from the internet-history-101 dept.

gcb asks: "I'm looking for sources about the history of the Free Software Movement, Linux, Open Source and even the creation of the Internet. Books, articles, persons to contact. I know I should contact RMS and ESR and read Open Sources, but I want to get into the details here. what books have been written? Who are the other players and visionaries?"

    Besides reading open sources, wich I thought was a great book, there is a lot of information and links at opensource.org and tuxedo.org.
    OSDN has some information as well as /.
    I know these are not books but I hope they help. They have a lot of information.
