G. W. Cottrell,
1863.
iv, [5]-30, ii p.

Introduction signed: W. H. Q.
The publisher of this tiny manual (called a "vest pocket edition") notes that of the many books available to the dancing public, few contain "the good old contra dances of our ancestors." To remedy the situation, the manual gives figures for fifty-six English country dances, group dances consisting of figures performed by a column of men facing a column of women.
Available also through the Library of Congress Web site as facsimile page images and full text.
