AND  Designing with LibreOffice is free to download, This is an
approximately 500-page book. Opening the file may take a moment because of
the length and number of illustrations.
Paper back version can be purchased at Amazon and lulu. Just reading the
index it is an awesome book.

Bruce Byfield's "Designing with LibreOffice" is also applicable to OpenOffice ( 
with some slight changes); it covers the intelligent use of 
OpenOffice/LibreOffice Writer for quite complex works.  It may be downloaded
