"The Complete Irsh Tin Whistle Tutor"

Summary: flutists perspective on this book
Review: This is the best Irish technique book I've ever seen. All the common celtic musical techniques are discussed, including grace notes, rolls and crans. It is a book on tinwhistle technique but I play the flute and still found these lessons most enlightening. One of the best features is a step-by-step tutorial of how the decorations might actually be used in the performance of a piece. This book is recommended for any musician interested in playing Irish music, no matter the instrument.

Summary: Good place to restart your music
Review: This was a great re-introduction to music for me. I was able to pick up a whisle and play quickly, the guide was informative. I will be moving from here to Ullian Pipes since they are also in D and use much of the same fingering.

Summary: Just Pick Up Your Whistle And Play
Review: While it is a stretch to say this is a complete tutor, it does permit a first time user to get a pleasant tune the first try. It isn't as easy to use as many others out there, but there is no perfect whistle book. Lots of tunes to make you sound suitably Irish within a week.
