This is a great wee book, jam packed with just about all the Scottish Country dances you're ever likely to need to know, & goes all the way from the basics, e.g. how to pas-de-basque, to more complicated moves with multi-people set dances.
It is really clearly laid out & when we were first going to a Scottish Ball we found this book just the ideal reference book - it even fits in a sporran so you can take it with you if you need to have a sneaky peek at the moves!

An excellent pocket reference book on Scottish Country Dancing, both an introduction to the style, steps, and formations of its subject, and a handy reference, especially for particular dances, for the afficionado. Recommended.
