Hard coverFrom the author of Women of Science, again 50 women with a gripping story. A wonderfully illustrated, yet inspiring book that highlights the accomplishments and stories of fifty notable female athletes, from well-known figures like tennis player Billie Jean King and gymnast Simone Biles, to lesser-known athletes like Patti McGee and Toni Stone, the first woman to play baseball in a men's professional league.

Women in Sport celebrates the success of the strong and fearless women who paved the way for the next generation of athletes.
