Praise for Micah Brooks and 42 Guitar Chords Everyone Should Know  

“Micah's new book serves as great inspiration and knowledge for both new and seasoned guitarists. With simple diagrams, he shows how to fret the chord and details the music theory behind the chord construction. If you've ever been intimidated with the process of learning to play guitar or learning how/why chords “earned” their names, 42 Chords takes a simplistic approach to all of it.  Not only can it ignite your playing, but it may open up a new world for composition as well.  Nicely done!” -Chris Wormer Guitarist for The Charlie Daniels Band

"What a well written book! This composition not only highlights every single chord known to music, it also delivers the information in such a clear and intelligent way. Micah goes on to even show which chords belong together in musical relation, allowing the reader to instantly begin using this information in a creative way. His heart for worship and education is clear from his introductory prayer, the breakdown of each chord and it's level of difficulty, the explanation of how these chords relate to their musical application, to his final blessing for each and every reader.
