The Parkhurst Book (<A HREF="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/158705017X/
qid=1013019140/sr=8-1/ref=sr_8_3_1/104-6193412-9481533">Cisco BGP-4 Command & C
onfiguration Handbook</A>) is more of
a compliment to Internet Routing Architectures. The Parkhurst book is more
for the actual nuts and bolts configuration of BGP vs. Halabi's book which
deals with the operations and theory of BGP. I highly recommend buying both.
There is also a book out there I have thumbed through that is made up of BGP
RFCs. What I read of it in the bookstore, it seemed to be a good book to
learn BGP theory as well.
