Can anyone recommend a good overall XSL reference book?
My preferred style is a functionality walk-through with practical usage examples.

Jeni Tennison's books both take this approach, I believe, as does Zarella Rendon's. Note Jeni has two, an insanely brilliant one "On the Edge" (could have been called "doing the unthinkable with XSLT") and a more approachable "Beginning XSLT". Zarella's covers the language end to end, I think. Bob DuCharme's is also good. We are fortunate to have so many people around who can write such a book (by no means all the experts post frequently to this list).


Some have liked Doug Tidwell's book from O'Reilly, but that's threaded more on a particular scenario, an exposure to XSLT rather than a reference as such.

You will find Mike Kay's book to be the canonical reference, also well worth having if you can get it.

Not OT--
