Java: A Beginner's Guide, Ninth Edition

Great book but the comprehensive one is what I should have purchased to start with. I now have both. I may update this review if I find a need for both.

Great book explains things well!

The classical writing style of this author, Herbert Schildt is always entertaining; so you learn a difficult topic while you’re being entertained like you are reading a novel. That to me is genius.
