Review # 1 was written on 2019-12-11 00:00:00 Timothy May Not planning to read this ~1000 page tome cover to cover but it was supposed to be the recommended text for MIT's single variable calculus class. From perusing ToC and sample chapters it seem to be didactically sound and well written though too chatty for my taste. Planning to refer to this mainly on the topic of finding the volumes of geometric shapes like cylinder, shell (via rotation around x, y axis) and length of curves using integration. Serge lang's book "First course in calculus" is an alternate book on this topic but it didn't cover it in much detail.

Review # 2 was written on 2020-12-30 00:00:00 Robert Sparhawk Best calculus textbook I have used for study (I also used Thomas' and Guidorizzi's).
