Book Reviews of And She Danced for the King: Memoirs of a Rockette
Book Review: Charming Tale of a Dancer during the 1930s
Summary: 4 Stars
This charming story of Peggy Morrison's life as a dancer during the depression years is told through the actual letters that she sent home to family members describing her day to day life. Her dynamic personality is captured in her own words and is a window into the hard times that she survived with style and grace. I especially enjoyed the descriptions of her travels overseas at a time when cruise ships were the only way go and war was looming on the horizen. This story would be enjoyable for anyone interested in show business during the 1930s. A very sylish lady!
