Frankie Manning!!!
I love Frankie Manning's story. I'm a Lindy Dancer as well and thanks to this book, I had the chance to read from all the brilliant Jazz Musicians and people he danced with from back in the days. Thank you Frankie Manning for your enthusiasm, your sympathy for this dance and the great music. This book is my inspiration. You have given the world a little light of joy. Thanks to you I have found something in my life I could really enjoy. And I believe that one day the Savoy will be back!

A wonderful profile of a legendary dancer
I have been a student and admirer of Frankie Manning's ever since my first dance lesson with him almost ten years ago. Frankie is a legendary dancer, an innovator and pioneer in the dance form called "Lindy Hop" that started in the Jazz Age in the streets of Harlem and continues to this day in clubs, schools and dancehalls all over the world. I've been hearing Frankie tell his inspiring stories for a long time now, but never with this rich detail and the larger historical context provided by Ms. Millman to back them up. From his days as a child at rent parties to the heyday of the Savoy Ballroom to performing internationally with the dance troupe Whitey's Lindy Hoppers, you follow the exciting growth of a young dancer. Then we follow Frankie into the war years and his dropping out of the swing world for several decades. Fortunately in the 1980s, Frankie is coaxed out of retirement and continues to do this day to teach and inspire others about this wonderful dance. Throughout it all, you cannot help but be touched by Frankie's grace, style and humor in navigating tumultuous, often racially-charged situations. I want to be Frankie when I grow up. A great read for anyone interested in African-american history, dance, or jazz.

Every dancer MUST read this!
Certainly, every Lindy Hopper must read this book. But I think it's a beautiful and important book for people outside of the swing dance community too. Frankie Manning was an unsung hero. He and the other members of Whitey's Lindy Hoppers helped were instrumental in a dance that shaped and influenced our culture and our history.

As a friend of Frankie Manning, this is an excellent book to learn about Lindy Hop from the perspective of someone that helped start it all!
