I'm afraid I have to disappoint you, Alex.
Marty Hall does not speak about the Model-View-Controller in his book.
The reason why I think Hall's book is very good, is that he describes in detail the working of servlets and JSP's. And I still get a lot of tricks out of his book.
But if you want to know more about the MVC, then there is the "Apache Tomcat Bible" from Eaves, Jones & Godfrey (Wiley Publishing, Inc).
This book has the advantage that it not only explains the theory behind the MVC. But you can as well build a whole web application, based on the MVC. The source code of this web application can be downloaded at
