Book Synopsis Just for Fun by : Robert W. Ikard

Book excerpt: The previously untold story of women’s basketball’s beginnings "Ikard (a basketball aficionado and amateur historian) offers a meticulous history of women’s basketball in the US--from the first game played at Smith College in 1892 to the 1970s--but he focuses on the AAU in the first half of the 20th century. . . . This period of women’s basketball is rarely discussed, so Ikard’s book will be valuable to sports historians. . . . Highly recommended.”-Choice
