This book was the best guitar instruction book in 1935 when it was published and was recommended by 14 of the top artists of the time. Those include Paul Wittenmeyer, Lawrence Salerno and Frank Lannom. You can see them all on the page in one of the pictures here. Note that there are pictures of a rotating chord tool titled 'Modern Accompaniment Guide" that I have captured in 12 images and they are all included. You can see a sample in the pictures here.

On that same page are these notes -

"In presenting this book to the teachers, players and students of the Guitar, the author believes that it will be found to be of very great assistance inasmuch as he has assembled the chords in a systematic and heretofore unpublished manner. "

"To many students of the guitar, chords in upper positions on the finger board forever remain a mystery, unless they are fortunate enough to have a teacher who laboriously and diligently teaches them."

" In using this manual in teaching, the author respectfully recommends that the teacher insist on the pupil memorizing the names of the notes in each chord, as given below the chart, as well as memorizing the finger formation of the chords throughout the positions. In this way only can the best results be obtained. "

"To the student who is not fortunate enough to be able to have the service of a good teacher, this book will be of untold benefit if studied conscientiously. The author advises that the student progress through the book slowly, learning the positions, the different forms and not neglecting to memorize the notes used in building each chord."

"To the professional player the book will be of assistance as a help to sight-reading. Throughout the book, the chords are shown in the formations best suited to orchestra, radio and recording accompaniment."
