註釋
Acclaimed as a foundational study of rodeo women,
Cowgirls of the Rodeo
surveys the early rodeo cowgirls' achievements as professional athletes. Mary Lou LeCompte follows the story through the near-demise of women's rodeo events during World War II and the phenomenal success of the Women's Professional Rodeo Association in regaining lost ground for rodeo cowgirls. Recalling an extraordinary chapter in women's history and the history of American sport,
Cowgirls of the Rodeo
deepens our understanding of the challenges facing women in the American West and in American sport.
