RBR Reading Room — We Are The Troopers: The Women of the Winningest Team in Pro Football History

Stephen Guinan, We Are the Troopers: The Women of the Winningest Team in Pro Football History, Hachette Books. Hachette (2022). ISBN 0306846934.

Rather than try to explain what the book is, the Publisher’s notes do a far better job than I could:

Before the protests and the lobbyists, before the debates and the amendments, before the marches and the mandates, there was only an obscure advertisement in a local Midwestern paper and those who answered it, women such as Lee Hollar, the only woman working the line at the Libbey glass factory; Gloria Jimenez, who grew up playing sports with her six brothers; and Linda Jefferson, one the greatest, most accomplished athletes in sports history.
