Book Reviews of Water Resources Engineering
Book Review: Excellent Textbook
Summary: 5 Stars
One of my coworkers had this book, I kept using it as a reference so I eventually bought my own copy. It is an outstanding textbook and an important reference book to have on hand. I highly recommned it. It is far better than the "Hydraulic Engineering" textbook I had in college.
