best $2.00 I ever spent! 
00!), and it was worth every penny!
Although this book is old, it has some useful reference material that can still be applied today. I bought this book awhile ago USED here on Amazon (for $2.
It doesn't mention as much about C as it does PERL, but it does cover the basic fundamental principles of using either language to create your own apache modules, which was more of what I was interested in.
A good book for Perl modules for Apache. 
That's too bad. Not much there for C, although it's not too difficult to make use of the Perl topics and covert them to C, it's more geared towards Perl (much more). Still, it's a good book and is very useful for referencing as well as for people looking to learn more about this topic.
If you want C don't bother with this book 
The book says "Apache Modules with Perl and C" but really, it's all in Perl. It's all in Perl. The only mentions I've seen in C are the very very beginning, and the end that restates the Apache documentation.
If you bought this book thinking it will have sample C code, you would be wrong. If you like Perl, then this is the book for you, but if you prefer C, as I do, then you will have wasted your money.
