4.0 out of 5 stars does what it says, 22 Dec 2007
By B. S. Barker "brendanbe" (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
A very easy to follow guide to garageband. I haven't read the other books to draw an even comparison but this got me off and starting in GB. If you want to start somewhere this is probably the best place. I'm not a big fan of the quips and jokes in these books but the information contained is clear and easy to understand
