Synopsis
Traditional music has been a dependable oasis in the long American pilgrimage. Folk dance joins us together, lifting us out of inhibitions, anxieties, and our acculturated need to exert control. The Yankee instinct for community art has been the inspiration behind Dudley Laufman's life-long stewardship of country dance, which is the story at the heart of this book.
