| Description |
In sport even more than elsewhere, first place is the only one that counts. And despite all the obstacles they have encountered on their way to get there, women have often been the first... Here is the well-illustrated astonishing destiny of 120 exceptional sportswomen.
Women occupy an important place in sport. Paying tribute to them today is a way of measuring the progress made from the Middle Ages to the present day. It is also immersing oneself in the portraits of exceptional women. It is certainly offering oneself jubilant moments of discovery, of returns on history, of fun and drama, of hopes and battles, of obstacles and conquests, of suffering and sympathy, and of course of victories and passions. Why did they choose sport as a challenge? How did they choose one sport rather than another? How did they get there? So many questions that this book attempts to answer.
