Outside of Boston, Louise Stokes, one of the few black girls in her town, sees competing as an opportunity to overcome the limitations placed on her, and risks everything to join the Olympic team. From Missouri, tomboyish Helen Stephens dreams of escaping the hardships of her farm life through athletic success. As United States and Europe edge closer to the brink of war, Betty, Louise, and Helen must fight for the chance to compete as the fastest women in the world amidst the pomp and pageantry of the Nazi-sponsored 1936 Olympics in Berlin."--Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Ewa Beach P/S Library Adult Fiction Hooper Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Fiction Hooper Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waimanalo P/S Library Adult Fiction Hooper Checked In Add Copy to MyList
