Suzanne: The Jazz Age Goddess Of Tennis (inbunden, eng)

One of the greatest tennis players the world has ever seen was a woman few even remember. A championship player by the age of fifteen in a Europe overshadowed by impending war, Suzanne Lenglen broke records for ticket sales and match winning streaks, scandalised and entranced the public with her playing outfits, and became a pioneer, making friends and enemies throughout restrictive tennis society in the trailblazing jazz age.

With stunning art and an astute eye, Suzanne explores how a figure both enormously influential and too-often overlooked battled her father''s ambition, bias in sporting journalism, and her own divisive personality, to forge a new path - and to change sport forever.
