Seller's Description:
Very good. Connecting readers with great books since 1972! Used books may not include companion materials, and may have some shelf wear or limited writing. We ship orders daily and Customer Service is our top priority!
The book is fine for the price but it is really another beginners' book and gives little detailed advice or discussion, despite its "blurb" promising that it is about technique. It is clearly written but beginners should buy a good tutor book and those already playing will not gain much more than they already know.
