Waltz the Hall: The American Play Party
Alan L. Spurgeon
What did young people do for diversion and socialization in communities that banned most dancing and considered the fiddle to be the devil's instrument? The American play party was the fundamentalist's answer. This is the first book since the 1930s to study this important and little-remembered phenomenon of American folk culture.
