I would recommend Kent Tong's book.  It's more of an advanced tutorial
than a book.  If I didn't have it, I would not be programming in
Tapestry at all.  And it was like $20US for the PDF.  BTW, the pdf is
better since you can copy and paste the code, and search for examples
much quicker.  Plus I can keep it on my thumb drive to use where-ever.

Are you using the Contrib Table?  Or are you trying to roll your own?
The book covers both, but I really like taking advantage of the
Contrib Table's features.

I am still a Tapestry novice myself, and I reference that book everyday.
