From The Inside Flap:

Dancing, classical and modern, is beautifully presented in this new, superbly illustrated book. Spectacular color photographs reflect the magnetic appeal of the great stars, the famous classics and the outstanding achievements of choreography. The story of ballet is traced from its beginnings to the exciting styles of modern dance. A special feature of this book is the photographic sequence illustrating the basic ballet movements step by step.
