Known to us lucky few on Livejournal as Paigemom, but of course. My copy of her new book "Make Merry in Step and Song" arrived on Friday and I've been delighted to add it to my bookshelves. Now available at your local, independent bookstore (and yes, Amazon, too).
My review:
"A must-have reference guide that's destined to become one of the most beloved of reference texts, outlining these time-honored mythic dances for all to enjoy!
This glorious collection of native British dances is a treasure-trove of simple, easily understood directions and music. Oriented to the seasons, Bronwen Forbes leads us through the colorful traditions of British music history. And as a delightful surprise, tucked in the back are additional little musical gems, for a myriad of celebrations.
Brownwen Forbes has delivered to the pagan community the quintessential text on the songs, dances and folk plays of old Britain."

Oh, and two more 1/2 page ads.
