Tremendous History of Ballet
The author's credentials include performance under the direction of masters such as Balanchine, success as a respected critic, and she holds a B.A. from Columbia University and a Ph.D. in Modern European History from New York University. Her review of ballet over the past 400 years is both academically and ascetically triumphant. We had high expectations when we ordered this book all of which have been far exceeded by the work in-hand.
