This well-written biography covers her entire life, smoothly bringing together anecdotes, interviews, and facts (and you know how baseball loves its facts and stats!). It's a book boys and girls, and the men and women they become, should read to provide a woman's perspective in the early 1950s about traditions and customs, gender roles, "official" rules, barriers of all types, and discrimination. What's changed? What more should change? Appropriate for high school and up, and recommended for all, even non baseball fans.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.
