Description
Strong Women tells the stories of 50 sportswomen who have achieved greatly, silenced the critics and smashed the patriarchy.
Recounting how women have not only fought their way into the world of sport but to the top of their game, Strong Women explores the trials and triumphs that have led the world's most inspiring athletes to the winner's podium and into the annals of history.
From being banned from the Olympics to representing every country, and from tennis player Billie Jean King winning the 'battle of the sexes' in the 1970s to gymnast Simone Biles shining a light on athletes' mental health in 2021, 50 incredible icons' achievements are described and illustrated in this glorious celebration of modern sporting icons.
