The royal ball-room guide and etiquette of the drawing-room, containing the newest and most elegant dances and a short history of dancing. By Rudolph Radestock ... Royal ball-room guide London, W. Walker and Sons [pref. 1877] x, [11]-95 p. front. 13 cm. Like other nineteenth-century dance manuals, this is a compilation of earlier writings. The book provides a short history of dance, positions of the feet, a glossary of French terms, and suggestions for giving balls including an admonishment to have enough waiters at the supper table. Indicating the decade's growing interest in elaborate balls, Radestock suggests one waiter for each two persons. The section on etiquette has been reduced to thirty-three short rules, and the manual describes most of the popular ballroom dances--quadrille, waltz, schottisch--and a variety of country dances.
