I've just added the new Finale Power! book to our website. It's over 400 pages, so not as extensive as the 750+ page "Easy Guide" but is an alternative to the Bill Purse book and, as you say, the manual itself. If you're looking for an Engraving-specific title that covers Finale then Steve Powell's Music Engraving Today is the one I'd recommend. Happy notating!
