This book is as good an introduction to winning play at low limit texas holdem as I've seen.

This should be everyone's first poker book for low limit holdem. It explains the necessary tools in order to make money at low limits. The reading is very easy and should take about a day or two to finish. I would recommend reading it twice or even three times. The more you read it the more you will understand how to win at low limits. The question and answer sections are a great way to fully digest the material.(everypoker.com)
While the book was written before the online poker revolution, you can easily compare the wild cardroom games discussed with loose online tables. This is a testament to tight-aggressive play and this will help to show you why you should play even tighter and even more aggressive online at small-stakes tables. If you buy one book on limit Hold'em, this should be it. (hauntedpoker.com)
