The Debian Administrator's Handbook is now available in several formats
and from several sources -- all linked from the website at
http://debian-handbook.info/

This translation into English of the fifth edition of the French “Cahier
de l'Admin Debian” (published by Eyrolles) has been crowdfunded, and the
results are just released.  The funding campaign was so successful that
the book is even published under not one but two free licenses (GPL-2+
and CC-BY-SA-3).  It is available as paperback, in several electronic
formats for easy consumption, and even browsable online from the
website.  And of course, it's also been made available to Debian users
in the "debian-handbook" package.
