The former is well-written as a general matter; the latter is less well-written. The latter is very similar to the FreeBSD Handbook that is free online. Sometimes, I read the Handbook but yet yearn for a better or different explanation. If you turn to "The Complete FBSD," often it is exactly the same text. This is not good.
