Well not yet but this is a good starting point for upcoming releases:

I have read a number of the one's written by Chris Negus and for previous
RedHat versions they were rather good. The RedHat 8.0 Bible was easy to
read, well organized albeit a bit limited in scope, I would have preffered
a
bit more nitty gritty in terms of configuration but it is a good starting
point. Mind you that the difference between RH 8/9 and FC1 are, in terms
of
general user and administration terms, so little that you could probably
pick one of these "old" books up for a penny and a scratch and give it a
whirl.
That an excellent point, I have used Redhat since 7.x? And I don't see
much difference.
Keeping in mind that Fedora is Redhat,and Redhat is Linux you could start
with the docs on the Redhat's mainsite, and then move on to Linux Doc
Project at http://www.tldp.org.

Came across one of those "24 Hours" books the other day (Brisbane
Australia ) very suprised as computer tech books are a month or two
behind the world here, it was 'Fedora' with 2 publishers FC1 CD's.Didn't
note the publisher.
