    Not impressed

    Actually, I found this guidebook hard to navigate through. I couldn't find certain measurements that I needed explained. It wasn't very reader friendly. Most of it looked jumbled together and not very well organized. It was too complicated to find what I needed, so I gave up and resorted back to using the regular study guides that I use for school. The oldest are sometimes best they say.
