Requests:  0 Summary:  "It's not simply that Dot Wilkinson was one of the most decorated women's softball players, bowlers, and athletes of all time and one of the original players from the three-time-world-champion PBSW Phoenix Ramblers softball team (1933-1965). Nor was it the length of her time here on Earth--over a century--although any of these things by itself would be impressive. The magic of Dot's story is in the details. It's the tale of a childhood spent in poverty, an indomitable, unbreakable spirit, a determination to be the very best to play whatever sport she undertook, the independence to live her personal life on her own terms, and her tremendous success at all of it. Over more than a decade of countless conversations and interviews, Dot shared all of it with her dear friend, author Lynn Ames. Dot held nothing back. Out at the Plate, told through the lens of Dot and Lynn's friendship, is the story of a forgotten era in women's history and sports, and one extraordinary woman's place at the center of it all." -- Dust jacket.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Hawaii State Library Adult New Books 796.3578 Wilkinson Am Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 796.3578 Wilkinson Am Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Nonfiction 796.3578 Wilkinson Am Checked out 05/08/2024 Add Copy to MyList
