Its a been a while since I did any X development but as far as I recall as an application (client) developer you generally only needed to know about the client library you were using together with some lower level details from Xlib?

Only if using something like Gtk+, which is mostly a cross-platform kind of approach anyway.

X Windows with the X Athena Widgets, or Motif, you better have all those books.
