"Female Athletes Make History" is a book about graceful achievers and trailblazers, record holders and boundary pushers, whose biographies are exciting and inspiring beyond the realm of sports. Their stories come to life through portraits, personal accounts, and interviews, documenting significant steps women have taken toward equality, as well as a piece of sports history. Above all, these are very personal stories of women like figure skater Marika Kilius, hockey player Constance Applebee, and biathlete Verena Bentele, who have relentlessly pursued their goals and inspire others to realize their own dreams.
