Very easy to look up many commands with this book, and it's small making it easy to take around...Definitely not the complete reference for Dos, but no one should expect that from an "Instant Reference."
Best to use

For the novice or the technician, this is the best book to use. I have had this book since '94 and still refer to it today. It is a lot of information on MS-DOS crammed into one book, yet it is small in size (fits nicely in my briefcase).
Just what I need.
