NOTES

This is part IV of "The Country Dance Book", a classic guide to country dance containing instructions for 43 different dances. Written in simple, clear language and profusely illustrated, this timeless volume is not to be missed by country dancers new and old, and it would make for a fantastic addition to allied collections. Contents include: "The Dance", "The Room", "Technical Terms and Symbols", "The Music", "Steps", "The Figures", "The Hey", "General Instructions", "Notation", "Put on thy Smock on a Monday (Round for Six)", "The Gelding of the Devil", "Oaken Leaves", "Sellenger's Round, or, The Beginning of the World", "Hit and Miss", etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on folk music
