Another Approach

Another way is to consider the relationship between the two. Some think of the Rules Book as stating the principles of the game, the Case Book expanding on those principles and giving application to the rules.
With that in mind, another approach is this: Study Rule 4, Definitions, first from the Rule Book section by section, highlighting what seems to be especially significant to you. After reaching an understanding of each section, 4-1-1, for instance; then refer to the corresponding reference in the Case Book (if there is one), 4.1.1, for instance.
Master an understanding of both principle and application(s), working your way through Rule 4, Definitions. Then proceed the same way through Violations, Fouls, etc.
An advantage with this method is that understanding is achieved topic by topic. Otherwise things can sometimes, for some (like me!), get kinda scattered with less understanding achieved.
That's another way.
