This is probably the most ambitious work in the Schaum's Outlines series, covering all of high school and—depending on your university and major—multiple years of undergrad calculus. It's necessarily terse and not without (mostly minor) errors, but if you put in a good amount of effort all you need going in is a sixth-grade education.
I wouldn't recommend it as your only book on the subject, but it's a good complement to a formal education.

the book is the best for independent study. you may have trouble getting used to reading the different notations but if you youtube this guy named "khanacademy" he will clear things up. prepares you for college level math very well.

Great calc review if you've had the whole sequence and just want to brush up with a few hundred problems. Don't expect to use it as a first textbook for 1, 2, or 3.

I'm an applied guy, so I'd rather he saved the more extensive proofs for an outline of analysis. I enjoyed a quick read through Riemann sums though.

Speaking of series. Maybe it's because I dozed through Calc II, but I didn't find the review of series to be enough. I don't really remember the algebra involved in summing infinite series very well.
