As the name suggests, this book contains images of dancing from 3300 BC to now.
This sketch of the iconography of the dance does not pretend to be a history of the subject, except in the most elementary way. It may be taken as a summary of the history of posture, for a complete dance cannot be easily rendered in illustration, along with descriptions of the various historic dances. It is hoped that this work may be of some use as illustrating the costume, position and accessories of the dance in various periods to those producing entertainments. To the reader desirous of thoroughly studying the subject a bibliography is given at the end.
