Agree. I also recommend the following book:

Gonnet, G.H. and Baeza-Yates, R. "Handbook of Algorithms and Data
Structures: In Pascal and C", 2nd. ed, Addison-Wesley, 1991.

This sounds like an application for a Patricia tree (I think this is the
name). A good book on algorithms should describe this data structure.

Exactly. Some authors use slightly different terminolgy; I would also
search for the terms "Pat Tree," "Pat Array," "Suffix Tree" and
"Suffix Arrays."
