"On To Smalltalk" - Patrick Henry Winston is very good. Also if you want the code for "A Taste of Smalltalk" you can get it from my MacSqueak 1.24 http://www.VisualNewt.com/Mac/Squeak124.html

The only one even close is "A Taste of Smalltalk" by our fearless T.K. I'm working on turning it into a built in tutorial, but I fear this (for reasons other than it's content) may end upp being beyond me. But if I ever can claim to understand ST, it will only be due to reading this book -- several times. I can't say that, like SICP or "On Lisp", I've learned something new everytime I've picked it up; but OTOH, I could probably say every other time...

I'm still looking for a Smalltalk book comparable to SICP or
Graham's "On Lisp" guaranteed to put muscles on a guy or grow hair on a billiard ball. Can anyone give me some pointers. So far, I've read through the purple and orange books, Burbeck's MVC piece, and Liu. I was rather hoping the last of these might fit the bill, but I was left hungry. Are there any decent brain bludgeons for a curious Squeaker?
Happy hacking,
