John Miller Books For Sale
« on: March 28, 2020, 12:39:24 PM »
Hi all,
I have copies of all four of my books that I did for Stefan Grossman that I can do mail order sales to  U. S. residents.  The four books are "John Miller's Country Blues Guitar Collection", "The Guitar of Mississippi John Hurt--The Rediscovery Years", "East Coast Fingerstyle Blues Guitar" and "Texas Fingerstyle Blues Guitar".  The first two books have 24 song transcriptions, the East Coast book has twenty-five transcriptions and the Texas book has twenty-seven transcriptions.  The books also include player bios, links to the original performances from which the transcriptions were made, the songs' lyrics and playing tips which expand on the transcriptions and provide guidance for the easiest fingering and picking.

The books all list for $25.00.  I'll sell any one book for $30.00, which covers the cost of the postage to you (Media Mail) and the padded mailing envelope.  If you order two books, no postage or envelope cost is added, so the cost for two books is $55.00.  I'm happy to sign any books purchased, if you would like that.

If you have any questions about what songs are in the books, or wish to place an order, please send me a personal message here, and I will tell you the procedure for making payment.  I think these books are great values, generally right around $1.00 per song, which is drastically more for your money than a teaching video.  Thanks for your time.

All best,
Johnm
