Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A reprint of the original 1902 edition by A. C. Wirth, a professional dancing master and teacher. The author describes the contents as follows: "Containing a full list of calls for all the latest square dances, including many of the old ones, with measures of time and steps required. Also a complete instructor and guide to every known round dance, figures for the German, etiquette of the ball room, etc." Over 55 different dances are described in detail. This book is a useful reference for both experienced contra dance callers, and those interested in learning to call contra dances and square dances. For those unfamiliar with the term "quadrille," its just a french word for four couples arranged in a square formation to dance, in other words, a "square dance." The original front cover states the title as: "Modern" Quadrille Call Book and Dancing Master, yet the inside title page of the same volume replaces the word modern with "Complete."
