Still like to play this opening and this book has helped me to better understand the various positions and move orders, and move orders are the key to playing the Stonewall: you can't just set up the wall, you have to be willing to mix it up based on how black is setting up. Soltis does a great job explaining the strategy and the tactics of this opening. Doesn't go terribly deep, however, so this is really only useful for the first ten moves or so.
