Title: accurate, but listen to the recordings
Review: The book is very accurate in describing the tunings and all that jazz. I would get the cd "Returning" and listen to the recordings of the songs because he might've moved the capo down a couple of frets. I think the book is great and william's music is simple to play and really forces you to dig deeper into the emotion of the tune rather than the technical side and be more of a showboat with it. I would say be cautious though because a lot of his tunes...well all of them use alternate tunings. So be ready for strings to break unless you have a guitar geared towards this style. My favorite piece is "Impending Death of the Virgin Spirit" and "The Bricklayers Beautiful Daughter." Like I said simple and yet very challenging to find the emotion in the way that he plays them and forcing to do the same with your interpretation.
