I am learning SQL on my own and have purchased a book that contains some basic 
samples of SQL that are supposed to work across many DBMS'.

first, the basic code:

***
select au_fname as "first", au_lname as "last", city, state from authors
order by state, "last", "first";
***

The "last" and the "first" in the 'order by' section are not accepted and 
generate errors. I have to use the actual original table column id to perform 
this sort.

Isn't this a basic function of SQL to be able to sort by the alias id?
