Title: Learned a little but...
Product review: I reently bought this book and got what I expected. Other reviews of this item pretty much have said it all. I didn't learn much more for the money, even though I used a $10 on my purchase. It might have been menitoned here somewhere but there are contridictions like "always use a lathe for lathe work and a mill for millwork" then a little later the author states "you can use a lathe for mill work and a mill for lathe work." I might not have quoted verbatem but you can get the picture. I felt Home Machinists Handbook by Doug Briney was much more informative, even though it's targeting the Sherwood mini lathe and it's $20 less. Briney also gave a few good reference charts. If you're a novice stick to Home Machinists Handbook.
