The Morris Book
With a Description of Dances as Performed by the Morris Men (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Morris Book: With a Description of Dances as Performed by the Morris Men<br><br>Our First Morris Book was issued in the early part of 1907. As we stated therein, it was written to meet a demand which had arisen with the revival of Morris-dancing in England. Time has shown that the revival was then only in its beginnings; the demand for more dances of the same kind has steadily increased ever since; we have written this book with a view to meeting it.<br><br>Our thanks are due to Mr. H. C. Heathcote, whose kind assistance materially aided our investigations at Winster, in Derbyshire; and to Mr. T. L. Gilmour, for permission to reproduce the photograph in frontispiece and to face p.45.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
