L'autore - bandleader e compositore originario della Sierra Leone - in questo testo insegna i concetti base della chitarra africana.
32 esercizi contemplano altrettante forme musicali africane (Afrobeat, blues del Mali, rumba Congolese, soukous, calypso, Agbsjsh ecc.) con le spiegazioni dell'autore.
La prima parte del libro si sofferma sulla tecnica (left-hand & right-hand damping, slammer booster technique, fingerings ecc.), mentre gli ultimi 3 capitoli riassumono le linee di basso, la parte percussiva e la struttura dei brani.
