I second this comment. The Cavaness It's not bad as a intermediate- to advanced-level book, but I tried to learn from this one first and found it next to impossible. The examples are few and far between, and not explained from the basics up. They seem to assume some knowledge. And there's no examples or references for the tag libraries, and some of the tag concepts, especially when you're first learning, are next-to-impossible to glean from context. My two favorites for learning Struts were "Mastering Jakarta Struts" by Goodwill (Wiley published), and "Struts Kickstart" by Turner and Bedell (Sams published). Between these two, I took off running and got my first app done.

I think the Struts tag libraries are poorly documented (and differences for 1.0 which I'm using are not described) in this book and has few if no examples of usage. You are better off reading the online documentation. Just my EUR2.
