If you are just starting with web development, I wouldn't recommend starting with Spring. Spring makes web development easier. It doesn't make it easy to learn

I really liked Spring in Action. However, I came to Spring after 10 years of development in Java. I think, as a fresher, you would be able to learn thngs from the book. However, it would better if you understand the underlying technologies that Spring is built on top of

I know Servlets , Jsp .
I know I can make thing without using Framework.
But ultimately I will have to switch to some framework at job place.
So why not get started with some framework .

Actually Initially I though of learning Struts2
So what is your take , I should start with Struts2 .

Struts, in my opinion, is a dinosaur. If you already have a sound basis in Servlets and JSP (and I mean a good sound basis -- for example, are you very familiar with the JSTL and EL?) then I think SpringMVC would be a better path forward than Struts.

What you say , Spring is the new one i think.
On Struts wikipedia page I see that its development have reached to end of life.

And what is the difference between Spring and SpringMVC.

SpringMVC is just one component of the vast Spring family.
