CUSTOMER REVIEWS:
Excellent book! -
I own a number of these Hal Leonard fingerpicking books, and this is one of my favorites. While I'm not a big fan of many of these songs (Yesterday is the exception) they are arranged beautifully. As the other reviewers have noted this book falls into the advanced beginner-intermediate skill level, but vary from song to song, so even if you are new there is something you can play. The nice thing about this book is that many of the songs are also piano standards, so I can play along with my wife.
My only complaint is with this series in general, they repeat many of the same songs, "Yesterday" I estimate appears in 97% of the Hal Leonard books (ok maybe that's a slight exaggeration ;))
If you are looking for another excellent fingerpicking book to go along with this one, "Fingerpicking Beatles and Expanded Edition: 30 Songs Arranged for Solo Guitar in Standard Notation and Tab" is great as well.

Great songbook! -
I recommend this songbook for any beginner/intermediate guitar player! The arrangements are challenging enough to help build your skills, but not so difficult that you would get discouraged. It's fun learning songs that are familiar to you. It makes you want to work harder to be able to play them proficiently.
Surprisingly good -
I own this book and Fingerpicking Pop and these are currently my favorite books to practice out of. I'm a beginning guitarist and have gone through a lot of songbooks for "beginners" and they just sound horrible because they are so simple. The songs are arranged so that they easy enough for me work with but complex enough that I'm not bored. Great learning tool!
I also recommend The Very Best of Fingerstyle Guitar (Hal Leonard) which is sort of the same thing (has some of the same songs) but a little more difficult.
Great fingerpicking guitar music! -
Seventeen popular pieces of music ranging from great classics like "Georgia on my mind" to "What a wonderful world" and "Yesterday".
The music is given to you in standard music score and in TAB (for non-music readers). The level of difficulty is easy-to-intermediate. Many of the songs are good for fingerpicking-guitar beginners. The arrangements are well done and sound good.

Good Beginning/Intermediate Book - 
This is one of my favorite books to practice with. I like the songs and the tab arrangements. They're difficult enough to challenge an advanced beginner/intermediate guitarist, but the songs are arranged easy enough to learn fairly quickly if you practice regularly. I wish the book had a CD or DVD version to be able to hear the tone used.
