Review: Informative - Very helpful for new players Review: Great Quality, Well-Illustrated, with Good Paced Instruction - We were new to Chinese Mah Jongg, and only barely followed the American rules a long time ago, so got this as a refresher when one of our family members took up the game. And: wow! So good. It's beautifully-illustrated, with clear explanations about basic rules in a decently-paced introduction to the game, and with explanations of the most popular variations and a basic overview of strategy. Special shoutout to the typography (was it done in TeX??) which makes it quite readable, and the heavy duty end flaps which can be used as bookflaps. One of those little books that could have been done cheaply but which is, in its excellent execution, a real pleasure to own. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #37,635 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #37 in Board Games (Books) #48 in Puzzle & Game Reference (Books) #280 in Puzzles (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 477 Reviews | ## Images ![The Complete Book of Mah Jongg: An Illustrated Guide to the Asian, American and International Styles of Play - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81PDDnxkK7L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Informative *by P***N on April 25, 2026* Very helpful for new players ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Quality, Well-Illustrated, with Good Paced Instruction *by M***. on December 3, 2025* We were new to Chinese Mah Jongg, and only barely followed the American rules a long time ago, so got this as a refresher when one of our family members took up the game.

Ms. Lo covers not only the classic 13-tile Cantonese version, but other variations as well, such as the American, Shanghai, and Taiwanese version. The book is well-illustrated to demonstrate the tile and procedures of game play preparation, and although there are some (momentarily) confusing discrepancies between some photos showing the sequence of play, they vastly simplify the accompanying text. One caveat: For the American version Ms. Lo references the American Mah Jongg Association as a source for obtaining the American game scoring cards, but it no longer is a distributor. The only options are to join the National Mah Jongg league to purchase them, or obtain them from eBay from a 3rd-party seller. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Complete Book of Mah Jongg: An Illustrated Guide to the Asian, American and International Styles of Play - Evey Wong's Guide To Playing Classic Chinese MahJong - A Beginner's Guide to American Mah Jongg: How to Play the Game & Win --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/23309210-the-complete-book-of-mah-jongg-an-illustrated-guide-to](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/23309210-the-complete-book-of-mah-jongg-an-illustrated-guide-to) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-21*
