 Lots of information in a skinny book Nov 19, 2008
This is a good book for intermediate level players looking to expand there ability to play in all keys. The author gives you diagrams on how chord forms (major, minor, 6th, 7th etc) relate to a given position as well as how to find these chords across the fret board. It has some simple exercises related to each roadmap, but working through this book could take several years if you wanted to design your own exercises based on each chord formation in each key. It is a deceptively thin book for all the information held within. I would not recommend it to brand-new players because the lesson design is not really geared toward getting a new player to play arrangements. If you have played through Jack Hatfield's 1st book on 5 string banjo playing (go to his website), then the material presented in this book will make sense to you; and it is an excellent resource for learning the fretboard.

 How do ya wanna play? Aug 10, 2003
This book isn't for a person who can pick out a tune by ear, and is happy with that. This book is for the person trying to teach themselves banjo, and isn't happy with just picking out what they hear without any rhyme or reason. This book gives you not only the how of picking, but also the why and the when of different styles. It will be a lot easier going through this book with an instructor who teaches musical elements in regards to the banjo, but quite doable on you own.
