It was this book. I have A+, Sec+, and FOI besides CASP. I used to work helpdesk for 2 years and moved up to a JR sysadmin position recently (3-6 months).
Well for starters, the CASP was just updated. Prior to that it hasn't been updated since it released in 2011. So it became increasingly out of date. On top of that, there have been other more recognized certs out there that seemed to be in more demand. This isn't to say that will change.
Also keep in mind, most people are only aware of the CompTIA trifecta. Even Linux+ until recently was considered a joke as well. It wasn't until they teamed with LPI that it started to gain momentum.
As for studying for the CASP here are some resources you may look at.
I used this and this. Both together are more than you'd need. If you have Sec+ and have even a small amount of industry/best practice/common sense experience, you'll be fine.
Not advocating them, but I'm sure there's braindumps for it, as it is entirely multiple choice, other than a few simulations at the beginning.
The cert guide is good and covers pretty much everything. There is an iOS app from LearnZapp that covers CAS-002 which is based on the cert guide. That being said, nothing really covers the PBQ's which in my case I had 10 of them. CAS-002 is being deprecated and replaced by CAS-003. So I am not sure what all of those changes will encompass.

I used those two books, plus Kelly Handerhan's Cybrary videos and Plural Sight.
Thanks. I was stressing out big time going into CASP, and now I'm stressing out big time going into CISSP.. Testing in 45 days.
