I’m looking to get a paperback music book on bluegrass for beginners. I’m a fan of newgrass and want to learn the basics so I can get to jamming with friends. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Jack Tottle’s Bluegrass Mandolin is a classic, has a lot of interesting extra historical info/pictures and has both tab and standard notation.
