K&R is full of gems, cannot recommend that enough for C. Great not only as reference but initial learning. It’s also so humbling that something 40+ years old (published ‘78) is still used so frequently today.

K&R is a masterpiece, but I would recommend the 2nd edition from 1988 so that the language as taught is a little more modern (essentially C89)
