"This book has created a greater flutter in social circles than anything published within our remembrance." -Los Angeles Times.
Reformed ballroom dance instructor Thomas A. Faulkner's 1920 book "From the Ball-room to Hell" had the endorsement of practically all opponents of dancing. It furnished the suggestions for thousands of sermons; it had the commendation of innumerable clergymen, including several bishops.
TESTIMONIALS.
"We have just finished reading Mr. Faulkner's book, called "From the Ball-Room to Hell," and we are profoundly moved by it. We believe every word of it is true, and that his characterization of the demoralization and ruin wrought by the modern dance is none too strongly put."
