Rating:  Summary: Useless sing-song style narration Review: After reading the reviewsto decide on buying this book, I am throughly disappointed in this purchase.The author fails to explain some of the details that make FP98 somewhat irritating. The title of this book should be : A 'fun' way of leaning FP98. Buy this book only if you are a beginner.
Rating:  Summary: Excellent book! Review: Mastering FrontPage 98 provides excellent advice on building and running a Web site using FrontPage. The authors describe how to do things clearly and they offer examples and tips that can only come from experience -- I found this book useful and even enjoyable.
Rating:  Summary: Best of the 9 Frontpage 98 books I own Review: Sybex does it again! I have been reading computer books for the last 10 years and Sybex has been a great publisher - putting out excellent books even back in the "Symantec Q&A 4.0 for DOS" days. Unlike what other people have said about the book on this page, the author DOES repeat a lot things in the book, and for good reason - You're trying to learn a new program!!! Believe me, the computer industry spits out books so fast that content is sometimes downright disgusting. After reading 3/4 of the book so far, I know that the publisher and the 2 authors have pride in their product. Its a wonderful book! Plus it gives you little useful tid bits about the world of web publishing.

Rating:  Summary: This is THE book for mastering FrontPage 98! Review: This book would still be poor value if you removed the 70% that is little to do with FrontPage as such and reduced the price to 30%. Anyone who needs the sort of basic Windows/web information with which this is cluttered should buy something else and get some familiarity with the interface before starting on constructing a website. The HTML info it provides also falls between two stools. If you know anything about it, this book is trivial. If you are new to it, this book fails to give a good grounding. And, purely personally, I dislike the "Gosh, hey guys" style intensely!
