The book contains rudimentary etiquette advice and dance instructions for numerous dances including the grand march, quadrilles, and contradances such as "Virginia Reel," "Pop Goes the Weasel," "Spanish Dance," and "Sicilian Circle." Also described are various round dances such as the polka, polka redowa, modern plain waltz, Boston Dip, varsovienne, and galop. The manual concludes with 104 figures for the popular parlor game, the German (also known as the cotillon). Available also through the Library of Congress Web site as facsimile page images.
