- I have been using "Teach Yourself OWL Programming in 21 Days" By Ian
- Spencer. ISBN 0-672-30600-X
-
- The book has a lot of good information in it, and has some pretty good
- example programs. Though don't expect to finish it in 21 days. I
- have had it for 3 months, and have only gotten to day 10. A full time
- job also has something to do with it. : )
