By "Official", I meant a book that is maintained and published by FSF
itself.

I "hope" to kickstart "The Emacs Book" initiative. If there are
developers who would like to share their notes with me to "seed" some
chapters, I would be happy to receive the draft notes, systematize it
and improve upon it.

I have never read a Emacs Book myself (and I have no idea how they are
typically structured).  I learnt Emacs using the tutorial.  These days
Info is my friend.
