This book is documentation for NetCruiser, the set of access tools for use with
the Netcom Internet Service Provider.  Third party docs are usually nothing to
write home about, particularly when the product is ISP specific.  Peal, though,
has done a very good job of integrating the actual use of the net in with
directions on what buttons to push.  His explanations are thorough and useful,
and he adds helpful tips on topics from uuencoding to netiquette, as well as
interesting historical tidbits.
 
For the majority of Internet users who *don't* use Netcom, this book will be of
little interest.  For those who are signed up with Netcom, you have a very
handy guide specially built for you.
