I decided to write Inside Servlets when I was attempting to port a custom web application framework written for the Netscape API (NSAPI) to the Servlet API. After scouring local bookstores and the web, I realized that there were no servlet books available. So why not be among the first to write one? Unfortunately, two other authors beat me to market. Inside Servlets, published by Addison-Wesley, was released shortly after Java Servlets by Example from Manning Publications and Java Servlet Programming from O'Reilly. Regardless, with interest in Java servlets just starting to boom in 1999, third to market was close enough to sell a lot of books (and the second edition did equally well).
