pocket guide
Compact travel manual
A pocket guide is a small, portable reference book designed to fit in a pocket.
The format emphasizes compactness and quick consultation rather than comprehensive treatment: a pocket guide to birds of North America, a pocket guide to wine.
The term extends to any condensed reference material: This chapter serves as a pocket guide to statistical methods.
