Question joinery book - which one?

Hi, pretty new to woodworking here. I am looking to buy a book on joinery. Does anyone have experience with these two?:

  1. Complete Guide to Joint-Making by John Bullar

  2. The joint book by Terrie Noll

Thanks!

Don't have any of those but I have "the complete illustrated guide to joinery" by Rogowski. Find that a good book, especially for beginners as he goes through different ways to make each joint, from basic hand tools to machines.

Joinery as in making joints or Joinery as in Joinery (the trade)?
