my experience was that Hungerford's presentation was organized, concise, and its great how he is explicit in differentiating between a proof and a proof sketch.
I'd hesitate to suggest to any of Lang's writings as the first go on a technical topic. If you are already comfortable with the material, his writings will give new insight and intuitions, but thats different from a first go at understanding a topic
(note to audience, we're talking about different math textbooks)
