Description:

This clear and complete history of women's sports exudes a fan's enthusiasm and an anthropologist's attention to detail. With a foreword penned by Billie Jean King, the scope of this book is enormous, including hundreds of biographies, a complete listing of the latest world records, and a chronological time line of women's sports from 500 B.C. to the present. Hall of Famers like Babe Didrikson Zaharias, Cheryl Miller, and Olga Korbut are, of course, prominently featured, but what makes this book such fun are the stories of obscure and little-known women athletes who compete for the love of the game.
