I was looking on my bookshelf for the O'Reilly CSS book just
now. If I recall correctly, it is around 800 pages. There
are many ways to accomplish a task in CSS and it's a
challenge to learn a useful subset with uniform coding
practices.

I haven't dived very deep in CSS, but recently (well a
couple years ago already) had a good experience using
Bulma(*1) to make a page suitable for various display
formats.
