In editing this book Miss Brower has made a splendid contribution to folk dance literature. She has chosen to describe eleven characteristic Old English dances as performed by the "Morris men." The Morris Dance in its arrangement is very artistic. The few illustrations give one an idea of the costume of the "Morris men" and suggest the form of their dance positions. A comprehensive description of the "Morris step" is first given. Graphic illustrations of general and special positions follow. The diagrams used here are especially helpful. Special instructions and a detailed notation for the eleven dances complete the book. By a wise selection of devices Miss Brower has succeeded in making her descriptions very clear. - The American Schoolmaster , Volume 4
