The idea is a good one and unique among books on the Apache web server. Each section is a HOW-TO, thus focusing on practical issues, rather than being an exhaustive manual. However, mostly the issues addressed are only the 'easy' ones. The book is already a bit dated too.

A good book for the common Apache questions and even not so common. Must read for system admins.
