Inside Network Perimeter Security: The Definitive Guide to Firewalls, Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), Routers, and Intrusion Detection Systems
by Stephen Northcutt

It has very crisp explanations of various concepts and shall form a good book for newbies to intermediates.....

If you are looking for FREE stuff, check this place out...

They have lots of papers on all aspects of security, though I must admit, some of them are a lot better than others.

I just ran across this link: http://www.zomerbijtje.de/books/Firewall/toc.htm

It looks pretty comprehensive, but I have only glanced through it. It's going on my "to-read" list though.

If you're still looking for some FREE firewall books, then perhaps I could help you out. I stumbled upon several great resources while browsing WindowSecurity.com that seem to contain pretty much everything on firewalls. Here are the links:

The largest and most informative resource there would be "Firewalls Complete." It's quite long (several hundred pages), but it should contain everything you need to know about firewalls.

Hope this helps you out!
