With elegant prose, poignant wit, and fascinating primary sources, Macy explores the many hurdles presented to female athletes as they stormed the field, stepped up to bat, and won the right to compete in sports. Featuring bold and talented heroines, this book documents how the social issues and morals of the decade--from politics to segregation to the media--helped shape the changing narratives around women and alter the course of history entirely. It is a fascinating window into a rich and seldom explored history, and also a topical reminder of the many discussions surrounding femininity and the role of women that continue today."--Amazon.com 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (page 91) and index. 650 0 $a Sports for women $x History $y 20th century $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Women athletes $x History $y 20th century $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Women athletes $y 20th century $v Biography. 700 1 $a McGraw, Muffet, $e writer of introduction. 941 $a 12 952 $l BLPC611 $d 20240125010305.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012014211.0 952 $l KAPF566 $d 20230331013949.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20220104013845.0 952 $l BWPD851 $d 20210714014800.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20210701010725.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20201007082331.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20200724010520.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20200529021218.0 952 $l RZPE145 $d 20200514010129.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20200304013519.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20200207010117.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=87361E7C497711EAA89E4F1797128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
