Bash Beginners Guide?

NMGLUGers, At our recent in-person meet up I had a brief discussion of
where to start with a Bash guide and remembered Machtelt Garrels' guide and
the Stack Overflow project, "Learning Bash." Both of these seem like very
detailed and complete guides, but how 'in-depth' does a beginner need to be?
The web site ItsFoss.com had a series of tutorials, FSF has a paperback and
there are other places to find a tutorial - like inside a shell and the
'man' pages themselves. But where to start from scratch?
I know I took a multi-pronged approach by taking one semester of Linux at
the Community College and working my way through a text for a more advanced
course on Linux and Unix as well as dipping into the Garrels and Stack
Overflow documents.
What night you suggest as a starting point for a person going from the GUI
to a terminal for the very first time?
Thank you, Ted P
