I think the book is organized well and it is very thorough. I am taking a Hydrology class and we are using this as our textbook. The professor says he has used this book as long as he remembers and he has been teaching the class for over 8 years. He thinks the text is good, but he does not think there are good example or homework problems.
I purchased this book for a class I am taking, and the detail the book provides about hydrology is excellent. It covers all of the major principles for hydrology from precipitation and runoff calculations, going into further depth with CN values for overland runoff and much more. Another big topic this book covers well is Evapotranspiration. If you're studying hydrology for the upcoming semester, or you want to learn how to manage water, this book will be great for that.
Great textbook, super helpful. Lots of tables, and well organized to help you find them. The problems in the back are filled with typos though, so check with your professor before you do them.
