I've read both of them and found them really interesting 3 or 4 years
ago. Sadly, they are quite old ("PostgreSQL: Introduction and Concepts"
published in 2000, 2002 for "Practical PostgreSQL"). You may better look
at this list :
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/books/
"Beginning Databases with PostgreSQL" is a really good intro.
