Good but needs more detail
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
We bought this when my 5th grader created a school presentation about Les Paul. It was great for that esp. b/c there isn't too much on Les Paul for a younger audience. It was just the right length, but my son said he would have appreciated more detail. We'd definitely recommend this book.
