Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1890s book on round dances by M.B. Gilbert, a well-known American dancing master, containing instructions for numerous variations on waltzes, polkas, galops, redowas, mazurkas, schottisches, and other dances. Somewhat unusually for the era, it does not include any notes on dances other than round dances, like quadrilles, or on etiquette. This edition is a modern reformatting of the early digitized version made by the Library of Congress for the American Ballroom Companion collection, itself now considerably antiquated. Formatting has been reworked to be both practically useful and considerably closer to the original text, and errors in the LoC digitization have been corrected when found, while errors in the original text have been preserved.
