Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dances of Poland Our folk dances have had a continuous, robust life and are especially popular between Christmas and Easter when farm work is almost at a standstill, our winters being long and severe. Many of our dances have been lost to us in course of the centuries but we still possess a large number, indicative of our love of music and dancing. Poland has had a troublous history, her geographical situation laying her open to perpetual movement between East and West. The country, so easily traversed, can be divided into regions fairly simple to delineate, and the dances of Poland can conveniently be related to these regions. Those of each geographical region have common characteristics. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
