Never played American Mah Jongg before? This book takes you from complete beginner to confident player, one clear step at a time, with no experience assumed and no confusing jargon left unexplained.

  • How to set up the game: building the wall, dealing, and the Charleston, laid out step by step
  • How to read the NMJL card and understand what a winning hand actually looks like
  • The full turn cycle: drawing, discarding, and calling tiles
  • The real difference between playing concealed and playing exposed, and when each matters
  • How to read your card strategically instead of just reacting to your tiles
  • Table etiquette for home games and organized club play
  • The most common mistakes beginners make, and how to avoid every one of them
  • Practice hands throughout, so you can test your understanding as you go
