Yup, it's classic, and it has really good problems. Be aware, however, that
while the book with both volumes in one cover is (I think) Halliday and
Resnick, the book was originally published in two volumes, the first
of which is by Resnick and Halliday. They explain this in the preface,
but it may lead to confusion while looking for the books. The title is
"Physics."
