Women's Sport Back in the Day,

This review is from: Wilma Rudolph: A Biography (Greenwood Biographies) (Hardcover)
This is a great account of the career of Wilma Rudolph and how she overcame so many obstacles to become a world champion. Even more, it gives an interesting account of world-class sport for women when it was still amateur: few scholarships, little organization, infrequent competitions hardly noticed by the press. For example, the day after Wilma came home from winning a bronze medal in Melbourne (1956), she was starting for her high school basketball team as if nothing really big had happened. Imagine that today. Lots of pages, and a unusual look at women's sport fifty years ago.
