Charting the history of women's football from its Victorian origins to the global popularity of today's game, Wrack's wonderfully engaging and important book pays tribute to the sport's continued ability to inspire, enlighten and entertain.
This is the astonishing history of women's football: from the game's first appearance in England in the late nineteenth century to the incredible teams that at their height drew 53,000 spectators to Goodison Park, through to its fifty-year ban in the UK and the aftershocks when restrictions were lifted.
Following the game's meteoric rise in recent years, Suzanne Wrack considers what the next chapter of this incredible story might - and should - be.
