For a harder read (but also with significantly more information about routing
in larger scales), grab Large-Scale IP Network Solutions by Raza and Turner,
ISBN 1578700841. This book talks about more advanced BGP topics and has
very good sections on other protocols (IS-IS, OSPF). We actually tend to have
most engineers read this book rather than Internet Routing Architectures,
but most of our people know at least the basics of BGP (or we can teach them
in a day or two).
It has enough case studies to put you to sleep for weeks.
