Satan in the Dance Hall explores the overwhelming popularity of social dancing and its close relationship to America's rapidly changing society in the 1920s. The book focuses on the fiercely contested debate over the morality of social dancing in New York City, led by moral reformers and religious leaders like Rev. John Roach Straton. Fed by the firm belief that dancing was the leading cause of immorality in New York, Straton and his followers succeeded in enacting municipal regulations on social dancing and moral conduct within the more than 750 public dance halls in New York City. Ralph G. Giordano conveys an easy to read and full picture of life in the Jazz Age, incorporating important events and personalities such as the Flu Epidemic, the Scopes Monkey Trial, Prohibition, Flappers, Gangsters, Texas Guinan, and Charles Lindbergh, while simultaneously describing how social dancing was a hugely prominent cultural phenomenon, one closely intertwined with nearly every aspect of American society fromthe Great War to the Great Depression. With a bibliography, an index, and over 35 photos, Satan in the Dance Hall presents an interdisciplinary study of social dancing in New York City throughout the decade.

"Sadie is hot on the trail of the jewel thief and deadly perp, Maestro, who uses music to transform his victims into thieves and murderers, who follow his command. This is rather heady super-science for a Western novel: it brings to mind the satisfying feel of the TV classic, The Wild, Wild West." ~ D. Donovan, Midwest Book Reviews --Denver, November,1883-- Maestro's music creates mindless puppets, who commit crimes at his command. To lure the sinister jewel thief out of hiding, Pinkerton Agent Sadie Michelson poses as a wealthy widow. Fearing for her safety, William "Cass" Cassidy, her hotheaded lover, hatches his own plot to end Maestro's killing spree. But his daring gamble backfires and costs him Sadie's trust. Now Cass is on the run, hunted by Maestro and the Pinkertons. Torn between her mission and her gunslinging lover, Sadie must stop Cass's showdown with Maestro, or risk losing her badge and her man.

This is not a book to be taken lightly, nor is it intended to be sensational. It is a serious result of three decades of painful soul-searching. Neither is the book to be considered disparaging of the institution of marriage. In many ways, it can be regarded as a psychological study of domestic abuse. In a graceful and sometimes humorous manner, Ms. Stone shares her life experiences with the reader so as to give a realistic insight into those horrendous experiences of abuse, which society in general prefers to regard as "behind closed doors" matters. The author apologizes for passages that the reader might consider indecent or obscene. This subject is an ugly and shameful part of our nation's heritage; and those accounts are needed to stress the obligation for changes. Ms. Stone realizes that the problems of this question of marriage lie in the grey morass of the conflicts of STATE and CHURCH. She feels that if ever we are to have stable family lives our representatives for study in this area must become more realistic, become more enlightened, and have the cooperation of the press and public.
