I enjoy watching period dramas with romantic scenes of waltzes. Some of my favorites are from The Young Victoria, War & Peace, Cinderella the movie, and Crimson Peak. They look so romantic with women in gorgeous gowns being swung around the ballroom by handsome men.  The Habits of Good Society, written by an unknown author in 1872, has much to say about the subject.  Have you read any historical romance books lately with a ballroom scene?
