HTML5 For Web Designers by Jeremy Keith
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
I found this very short HTML5 primer too shallow. It barely scratches the surface of HTML5, but I suppose that was the intent. I enjoyed the fact that it describes the creation of HTML5 in more detail than other HTML5 books I've read. Keith's writing style is entertaining, and I laughed out loud a few times. Overall, I preferred Introducing HTML5 and Teach Yourself Visually HTML5.
