-- "The book (Apache: The Definitive Guide) actually lives up to
its bold claim, as it contains everything you will ever want to
know about the World's most popular web server. In short, the
book has everything you need to get started with the Apache web
server, and to help you progress from there to more complex
operations. I believe it complements nicely the skimpy 'official'
documentation available on Apache's web site. Thanks to its
broad coverage of topics, the book should appeal to both
beginners and experienced webmasters." -- Luca Cotta Ramusino,
Linux Journal Oct 1997
-- "Although Apache is in fact the world's most popular Web server,
its documentation has been spotty. No longer, thanks to this
excellent guide." -- Byte Magazine, July 1997
-- "For excellent documentation, the O'Reilly folks have published
Apache: The Definitive Guide." -- Information Today, March 1998
