Recenzii
Those with limited dance background will find that the book is accessible and offers plentiful photographs throughout...An invaluable resource for those interested in tap dance from the Harlem Renaissance and swing era to bebop.
The Nicholas Brothers! Legends of the dance and blazers of the trail. Thank you, Constance Valis Hill, for sharing their magnificent story once again.
The Nicholas Brothers are otherworldly superheroes to me...Hill's book is not only a masterful telling of who they were, but also a testimony to what is possible with an imagination and a commitment to excellence.
A peerless jazz-tap biography and an example of dance history writing at its best.
