    192 - Year End 2020

    Taking another break from revisiting the books that he has been given by guests on the podcast, Charles Adrian revisits instead what he said in the previous episode about Scottish Country Dancing and talks about three books that he has very much enjoyed.   More information and a transcript of this episode is at http://www.pageonepodcast.com/   Correction 1: This episode was recorded on the 15th December, 2020, and not the 14th December as Charles Adrian says.   Correction 2: Charles Adrian mistakenly pronounces Ivanhoe as Ivinghoe.
