Fred Astaire & Ginger Rogers Book, The

Originally published in 1972 by Outerbridge and Dienstfrey, this book is an extended appreciation of the Astaire/Rogers films. It has been carefully reprocessed with major quality improvements in most of the pictures. The author has made some corrections to the text, and there is a new introduction by Garry Wills.

I think it's perfectly safe to say that this is the best book that will ever be written about Astaire and Rogers-Pauline Kael One of the best studies of popular culture anyone has written-Newsweek One of the best-loved works in dance literature. In prose that perfectly rises to the thrill of these classics, she herself produced a classic-New York Times (2009)
