Publisher's Synopsis

First published in 2003. This is Volume II of eight in the Early Sociology of Culture collection and offers a sociological study on the commercialized recreation. Paul G. Cressey while serving as a case-worker and special investigator for the Juvenile Protective Association was requested during the summer of 1925 to report upon the new and then quite unfamiliar closed dance halls. This book is in a sense the outgrowth of those assignments.
