I saw the suggestion posting on Saturday about Parkhurst's book, so I bought
it Saturday at 9pm and had finished by Sunday.

He spends too many chapters on the basics, like what a router or bridge is,
etc. It is worth reading as he adds some good suggestions, but I would say
one 3-4 chapters of the whole book are worth anything.

ie. parkhurst covers NSSA but forgets to talk about Stub Areas until later.
  I think he could have done a better job.

Caslow gives you a 1.2.3. approach. For example, he often states "Don't
EVER go paste step x until you get y results". I personally like his
stuctured and layered method. Key is you have to have 3-5 routers and be
following along step by step almost...

Caslow is a MUST have for the CCIE Lab as far as I go. Parkhurst added one
or two tidbits to my knowledge level, but Caslow was exponential growth for
me - jason
