"I was so delighted to get a letter from Phrosso this morning, saying that you were going to allow her to take up Dancing as a career when she has finished her Schooling in Paris. |We should be so very pleased to have her as a Student, as she has always shown such intense keenness… and enthusiasm as a child in the Classes for her Dancing, that I am sure she will make a success in this very happy and health giving profession. [.]" She had sent a copy of the Agreement, and adds, "It is such an excellent thing for a girl to have a career in her hands these days, although there may be no call for it at the moment, one never knows when one will need it.

Summary: One of the most important manuals devo…ted to the performance of early nineteenth-century quadrilles, Strathy divides this manual into two parts. Part one is an extensive treatment of exercises for the improvement of one's deportment. Part two provides lucid descriptions for more than twenty steps appropriate for the performance of the quadrille, a popular ballroom dance performed by four couples who face each other in a square. Additionally, Strathy provides combinations of steps for the most common figures of the quadrille. The manual concludes with directions, given in French and English, for eleven quadrille figures. Some b/w Illustrations (illustrator). Book.
