Since the 1930s, women have been champions and pioneers in the game of cricket - but their stories remain largely untold.This book celebrates some of our greatest cricket players - Belinda Clark, Ellyse Perry, Meg Lanning and Alyssa Healy - while paying homage to the women who came before. Learn the story of Emily Whatman bowling overs to her young son, Don Bradman, in the backyard of their home in New South Wales; read about Christiana Willes who (legend has it) first delivered the overarm bowl in order to get around her uniform skirts; watch Peggy Antonio capture the sporting sorld's imagination with her destructive leg-spin deliveries; meet Betty Wilson, the first Australian woman to score a Test century against England; and of course, enter the trophy cabinet of Horne's own mother, Nesta Cavill Williams.
