Er, not correct ...

There are two, free, docs for current versions: the guide and a help
manual. The gnucash web site seems to be down now as I get to look at only
a blank page. But, I uploaded both docs (for gnucash-3.6; I've not upgraded
to 3.10 docs yet) to a cloud sever. Download them from
<https://tinyurl.com/r3lubr7>. They'll be there for 5 days.

Read those, grab newer versions when available, and ask for help here. Don't
give Amazon your money for that book.

HTH,

Rich
