My book doesn't have too many details, but it has a short but
hopefully useful discussion of boxes and labels in the third chapter.

You just pack the top widget with expand and fill set to FALSE, then
you pack the bottom one with those set to TRUE.

that. Also in general people overuse boxes, when they could get a
nicer grid-style effect with GtkTable.
