As a new caller, I am interested in reading about the variety of ways square dances are put together. Ernie's book features a large variety of dances with clear, easy to follow instructions.

I found Ernie's book to be very informative, especially his explanation of the calls. Many new dancers do not know what each call is telling them to do and therefore they get confused and lost. Ernie's explanation of the calls is straightforward and easy to follow thus enabling new dancers to learn quickly and easily. I feel Ernie has done an excellent job sharing his knowledge and his book is a must read for Olde Tyme square dancers. Let's keep this recreation going!

Ernie Shoebridge has brought out a great book titled 'Olde Tyme Country Square Dance Calls - Book 1". I purchased my copy a couple of weeks ago and immediately read it through in detail. He includes an excellent glossary of terms and definitions and I particularly like the way he has provided instructions for each of the dances. Readers will have no problem understanding how each dance goes. As he says on the cover it is for dancers and callers. Looking forward to Book 2.

Ernie's book of calls is a pleasure to use and to read. I found it well laid out with excellent directions for both inexperienced and experienced callers/dancers. The graphics are also a joy to behold.
