Description - A Woman's Game: The Rise, Fall, and Rise Again of Women's Football by Suzanne Wrack
A Woman's Game explores the history of women's football from the Victorianera to the present day. It is the story of a rise, fall, and rise again: from thegame's first appearance in England in the late 19th century; through the incredible Dick, Kerr Ladies team that at its height in 1920 drew 53,000spectators to Goodison Park; to its 50-year ban in the UK and the aftershockswhen that ban was lifted.
Now, as the women's game is once again on an unstoppable upward trend,with a record 6.3m viewers for England's match against Scotland in the 2019World Cup, Suzanne Wrack considers what the next chapter of this incrediblestory might be. From its relationship to the worldwide fight against oppression, to its ability to inspire change in wider at large, this is both a history offootball as played by women, and a manifesto for a better game.
