I received this as a Christmas present after a trip to NYC where we saw the Rockettes live - it's a great coffee-table book with fantastic pictures from the 30s & 40s when the Rockettes not only worked at Radio City Music Hall but also lived and ate there. It also has pictures or sketches of almost every costume they've ever worn.

this shares the beginning of the troop and them eventually moving into a building as a between-the movies-act. eventually becoming a full-blown act, many costumes, travels. potential funding short fall causes reevaluation. some travel and appearances. mentions height requirements and skill abilities, insightful.
