I would not recommend this book for any beginners in Python Web Scraping
I would not recommend this book for any beginners in Python Web Scraping. Why? The website example they use in the book HAS NOT BEEN maintained and the code used in the book to reference the example website DOES NOT MATCH. I also found multiple complaints on the Internet from others. You will be so frustrated figuring out if you typed the code wrong, where in fact, the website links of the actual site don't match what's typed in the book. I'm glad I have some prior programming experience where I can fix some of the issues I experienced on the fly, but this takes additional time and testing. Overall, the book does go in depth and I think will be good for those with prior Python Web Scraping experience.

Serious about webscraping? Must read
Finally a book that covers more than just the basics of webscraping. Packt needs better proof readers though. Language errors.
