Well BlueJay I can not see any copyright on this 1996, 3rd Edition either so I might as well add some more of what Peter said on the back of the front cover.............

"If I did revise this book I'd start with the G tuning, not the C tuning, and start with single string playing, not chords. What I call here "a basic strum" I'd call a simple strum" and teach it not at the beginning, but later on. I'd print more complete songs. I never realized how frustrating it must be to start learning a piece and then be told "finish it yourself". I'd have a picture of one of the great West African musicians like Bai Konte, who played a Kora - a 21 string banjo harp or Abdourahman Mangara, who playes a 4-string Gambare."
