de Marius Petipa (Autor), Lillian Moore (Redactor), Helen Whitaker (Traductor)

The memoirs of Victor Marius Alphonse Petipa (11 March 1818 — 14 July 1910), a French-Russian ballet dancer, teacher and choreographer.

These highly entertaining memoirs of Marius Petipa, the great Franco-Russian choreogapher had never before been translated into English before their first publication in 1958.
