Very Good Reference
Gives several options to play chords - easy to find an option that works and sounds best for the songs you like to play. I am a three chord strummer and its fun to experiment with the various chord options. This book has other useful info, too.

Good Book for Beginners
My daughter is learning guitar, I had this book delivered to her door, she was very happy to receive it.

Targeted towards beginners
The book has a lot of visual diagrams and pictures of hand shapes which makes it easy for beginners to understand chords. Chords aren't organized by sound and harmony but instead by root notes. This can make it harder for beginners to piece together good chord progressions. This shouldn't pose a problem for people experienced with a bit of music theory.In my opinion, the golden part of the book is the end, where there is more information on moveable chords and ways to play progressions.Worth the purchase for beginners, but intermediates or experts should steer clear.

Top 5 Guitar Chords Manual
This book shows you all the chord shapes right in front of you. Combine this with the circle of fifths wheel and practice, to build dexterity and you're good. Everything is a learning curve but this just makes everything so much more easy, especially if you write songs and you want to learn different positions on the guitar inspiring embellishments.

Simple and to the point, great for creative ruts
It's just a big book of pictures of different chord shapes you can do, what more could you want? If you're in a rut having one of these on hand is great for trying new things. I don't think you need to know theory to enjoy this book, but knowing some basic stuff like circle of fifths combined with this book will have you making neat chord progressions in no time

My guy thinks it's great
I'm just learning guitar so I've no idea what this book 'should' be but my guy that's kinda teaching me to play thinks this book is amazing and actually recommended it to me. It's help me play the 3 chords I can so I'm happy enough. I'm a lazy, non-reading words person though so I just wish there were more words on the actual chord pages. I honestly didn't read the intro pages out of habit (I grew up in the weekly school book report era, ion do forewards or intros) which would probably be helpful but I'll be sad if it's not so I can chance it.

Well Organized and Easy to Use
I've found The Guitarist's Chord Book to be extremely helpful. It's well organized, which makes it very easy to find chords, and the photos are helpful in seeing how to play each chord. I also really like the Moveable Chord section; once you learn the shapes and have a basic understanding of the notes on the guitar neck, you can play a host of different chords up and down the neck. I've owned several chord books over the years, but The Guitarist's Chord Book is the best by far.
