About Hal Leonard Fake Books
A "fake book" contains songs written in a concise format that includes only the melody and chords, letting you interpret the song's performance as you feel is appropriate. This is great for quickly learning songs by yourself or with an ensemble.
Each song in a fake book only has a single melody actually written out in notes, which is usually the vocal or lead melody. This melody will have the lyrics written beneath the notes, with each word aligned to its corresponding note. Above the notes of the melody will appear the names of the appropriate chords to play - for example, a "C minor" chord would be written as "Cmin" or Cm", rather than writing out all of the notes in those chords as they appeared in the original version of the song.
This format is very compact, which is why you will often see fakebooks containing 500 or more songs.

Wow!
I found all the wedding and love songs I like to play. It's a little difficult for me because I barely got to play chords. I thought at first it was a Key of C version but it's for C instruments. At any rate, I give this book 5 stars....

Indespensible for jobbing, but not for purists
If you don't mind a fake book approach to classical music to get through this weekend's wedding gig, this book is for you. There are also plenty of pop tunes and love songs that you thought you forgot (but alas, didn't).
