Best-selling author Wendy Buonaventura brings us from Buenos Aires, Argentina, where immigrants created the delicious tango, to Paris and the bawdy, leggy cancan dancers of the Moulin Rouge, to New York, where struggling African-Americans cakewalked, Charlestoned, and shimmied into the public eye, creating \"jazz dance\" (originally--and tellingly--called \"jass\" dance). This is a book for lovers of dance and lovers of history alike, and an engrossing introduction to a slightly seamy side of a cultural legacy.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Da Capo Press","offers":[{"title":"Something in the Way She Moves | Wendy Buonaventura | Hardcover | 9780306813481 | Used: Like New | Sociology 1613076","offer_id":50683411235074,"sku":"1613076","price":26.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/81AI7HtPzlL.jpg?v=1791425596","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/something-in-the-way-she-moves","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
