“An alternative”

This is for all those of you who are still devoted to C Paul Herfurth's classic tutor. Almost entirely re-written and complete with a CD the format is reassuringly familiar but much more contemporary. The layout and presentation is good with informative photographs and diagrams. Each lesson has clearly stated goals with both exercises and pieces to achieve them. The excellent accompanying CD recorded by Alison Hayhurst complements the book very well. The overall package here is very good so give it a try.
