This review is from: In the Footsteps of Champions: The University of Tennessee Lady Volunteers, the First Three Decades (Hardcover)

This book captures the unique history of the Lady Vols, a preeminent program in the nation. Under-reported in general media, Schriver does a wonderful job lacing together the genesis and proliferation of Tennessee's legendary Lady Vols programs, especially the unsurpassed basketball program of Pat Summit. The photographs add the third dimension of visual experience that helps Volunteer fans new and old wrap their arms around an amazing story. Enjoy the book and the story.
