I was excited to buy "Let's Dance," by Paul Bottomer. (Be gentle with me, I am a beginner.) It covers an amazing amount of ground with clear textual descriptions, lots of photos, and diagrams. Unfortunately, I got it home before I realized the 'smooth' section was all based on international style. My lessons are American style. Someday, I will delve into Int'l but for right now, does anybody know of a good book about American style that has clear text, photos, and diagrams that would be useful to a novice?

My ex and I published a small tome on the American style 6 majors back in 1975/6 .
trying to re call content -- think we gave first 5 steps in the Bronze-- simple breakdowns and diagrams . Will see if she still has any copies .

That would be very cool, terence2. I would be more than happy to pay the price and shipping to have a copy of your book. From your postings here, you sound like an excellent source. Thanks again.

Am waiting for my daughter ( in the states ) to contact me, and will see what she can dig up .
