Women in Sports: 50 Fearless Athletes Who Played to Win

Sarah Mollo-Christensen

0/5 ( ratings)

'WOMEN IN SPORTS' highlights notable women's contributions to competitive athletics to inspire readers young and old. Keeping girls interested in sports has never been more important: research suggests that girls who play sports get better grades and have higher self-esteem - but girls are six times more likely to quit playing sports than boys and are unlikely to see female athlete role models in the media. A fascinating collection full of striking, singular art, 'WOMEN IN SPORTS' features 50 profiles and illustrated portraits of women athletes from the 1800s to today including trailblazers, Olympians, and record-breakers in more than 40 different sports. In summary, 'WOMEN IN SPORTS' celebrates the tough, bold, and fearless women who paved the way for today's athletes.

The book also contains infographics about relevant topics such as muscle anatomy, a timeline of women's participation in sports, statistics about women in athletics, and influential female teams.

RUNNING TIME ⇒ 3hrs. and 26mins.
