A Plain TEX Primer by Clark
This primer is an introduction to TeX and provides the reader with sufficient information to get started with the majority of tasks which he or she may wish to tackle. It explains why TeX approaches its subject in the way it does, and provides the "context' into which it fits. Plain TeX is the common starting point for TeX users and can be extended or modified to suit individual needs. With the aid of this book, scientists and researchers preparing their own books and papers, or technical typists, used to the conventions and jargon of their field, will find little difficulty in adopting TeX's approach.
