OpenSceneGraph Quick Start Guide

This book is a concise introduction to OpenSceneGraph (OSG)—the open source, cross-platform scene graph application programmer interface (API). OSG plays a key role in the 3D application software stack. It's the middleware above the lower-level OpenGL hardware abstraction layer (HAL), providing extensive higher-level rendering, I/O, and spatial organization functionality to the 3D application.

The Quick Start Guide and OpenSceneGraph Reference Manual - can now be purchased from their website http://www.osgbooks.com. The Quick Start Guide is also available as free pdf download, just follow the links on the osgbooks website. Purchasing books helps fund ongoing documentation efforts so its a great way to help put something back into the project.
