520 8  Dancing in the English style explores the development, 
       experience, and cultural representation of popular dance 
       in Britain from the end of the First World War to the 
       early 1950s. It describes the rise of modern ballroom 
       dancing as Britain's predominant popular style, as well as
       the opening of hundreds of affordable dancing schools and 
       purpose-built dance halls. It focuses in particular on the
       relationship between the dance profession and dance hall 
       industry and the consumers who formed the dancing public. 
       Together these groups negotiated the creation of a 
       'national' dancing style, which constructed, circulated, 
       and commodified ideas about national identity. At the same
       time, the book emphasizes the global, exploring the impact
       of international cultural products on national identity 
       construction, the complexities of Americanisation, and 
       Britain's place in a transnational system of production 
       and consumption that forged the dances of the Jazz Age.
