Dancing Days: An Impression of Youth, by J. J. BELL

Dancing Days is a family drama written by Glaswegian journalist John Joy Bell (1871 – 1934) which was made into an early Hollywood film in 1926.

It is a light-hearted novel featuring Glasgow working-class characters and tells the story of a   married man who becomes involved with a gold-digger. A love triangle develops, as his wife refuses to let him go without a struggle.

With his use of vernacular speech and comic depictions of Glasgow life, Bell was extremely popular in the early 20^th Century, and several of his works made it to the big screen.

Published by Hodder and Stoughton, 1910. Hardcover.
