ScotlandsFest: Heel for Heel - Scottish Dance Fever

What is it about Scottish dancing that gets people the world over in such a spin? The catchy music? The colourful gear? The fun of formations like teapots and helicopters? In Heel for Heel, writer and reeler Cindy Gray celebrates the enduring legacy of all the genres, from the ancient Highland Fling to its successors: including Scottish Country Dancing, Step Dance and ceilidhs. Her book radiates with the energy and enthusiasm of dancers going Heel for Heel, like the guests at Mairi’s Wedding. Expect fancy footwork and dynamic photos!
