What is the difference between NHibernate and fluent NHibernate?

Fluent NHibernate offers an alternative to NHibernate's standard XML mapping files. Rather than writing XML documents, you write mappings in strongly typed C# code. This allows for easy refactoring, improved readability and more concise code.

Fluent NHibernate is a mapping strategy for NHibernate, it is not large enough to justify a book to itself. Everything outside of mapping is exactly the same as NHibernate (in fact, it is NHibernate).

The best thing you can do is study the existing NHibernate material out there (such as the Cookbook suggested by Nicholas Murray), and then use the Fluent NHibernate wiki to read up on the new things that FNH brings to the table.

You should consider purchasing the new NHibernate 3.0 Cookbook as Fluent NHibernate is referenced throughout the book.
