In this systematic study of the multifaceted instrument, the two authors (both of whom are musicologists as well as instrumentalists) draw on analysis of published music and the writings of contemporary theorists to provide a wealth of information about players, composers, instruments, tunings, and surviving compositions. They divide the book into their respective areas of expertise, Tyler (U. of Southern California) examining the two main guitar types found from about 1550 to 1750, and Sparks breaking new ground in the study of the guitar's rich history from 1759 to 1800, a period in which the instrument was once considered to have been dormant.
