I don't know how "quick" it is...but I found a good study on Unix to be
Unix Unleashed by Sams Publishing.  It starts off very basic, at the login
prompt, and takes you through choosing a shell, getting familiar with the
most used commands, etc.  It gets into system administration, perfomance
monitoring, etc etc.  It is a huge book, but it gets very detailed with
good examples and information on just about everything.
