Maryann Riker: "The third collection in a series of zines from JUSTARIP Press dealing with the early history of women in baseball, aviation, auto racing, and marathons!

"'Women with Balls' tells about the early history of women in baseball; 'Women with Balls - The AAGPBL' describes the women's league formed during WW2 and it's duration to the mid-1950s; 'Fly Girls' describes five female aviators who organized and broke ground as flying aces; 'Driven Woman' is the story of Helle Nice, one of the first female race car drivers to win races and tour the world; and 'Woman on the Run' the inspiring tale of K.V. Switzer, the first woman to run the Boston Marathon and her trials and tribulations."
