This is a good book if you already know HTML. Its kind of confusing because right in the middle of the book is a big section with all the tags and their description, but if you overlook that it is a pretty good book.
A tool I could not do without....

This is an invaluable tool and I my classes I use it daily for looking up syntax and finding the answer to questions. Alas, as always with print in this fast moving world, the paper edition is usually outdated by the time it even leaves the printshop!
Very reliable

When I'm not sure I turn to Graham. His text can be relied on. A very good feature of his book is the way he describes most succinctly the 'Can Contain' and 'Can Be Inside' aspects of each tag. With most texts you have to really hunt for this information - if it's given at all. OK, it's not the easiest book for a beginner, who may find Lemay easier, but his text is more reliable and isn't marred by a host of typos. So if you want a reliable tome, this is a good one.
Great tool.
