Well, not exactly. :-) I have the 2003 edition of Java Development
with Ant published by Manning. It is large and thorough but a lot of
it is dedicated to J2EE and other stuff not directly related to WO.
It is, at least, an adequate book on Ant. I got me where I needed to
go and I still refer back to it.
I can imagine a better book, perhaps someone can recommend a better one?
