This book is an historical survey of women's sport from 1850-1960.
It looks at some of the more recent methodological approaches to
writing sports history and raises questions about how the history
of women's sport has so far been shaped by academic writers.
Questions explored in this text include: What are the fresh
perspectives and newly available sources for the historian of
women's sport? How do these take forward established debates on
women's place in sporting culture and what novel approaches do they
suggest? How can our appreciation of fashion, travel, food and
medical history be advanced by looking at women's involvement in
sport? How can we use some of the current ideas and methodologies
in the recent literature on the history and sociology of sport in
order to look afresh at women's participation? Jean Williams's
original research on these topics and more will be a useful
resource for scholars in the fields of sports, women's studies,
history and sociology.
