Adversaries of Dance: From the Puritans to the Present Paperback - 1997
by Ann Wagner
From the rear cover
Whether in the private parlor, public hall, commercial 'dance palace' or sleazy dive, dance has long been opposed by those who viewed it as immoral--more preciously as being a danger to the purity of those who practiced it, particularly women. In Adversaries of Dance, Ann Wagner presents a major study of opposition to dance over a period of four centuries in what is now the United States.
