The Dick Kerr's Ladies

< Back

Barbara Jacobs

This richly detailed narrative chronicles the rise of the Dick, Kerr’s Ladies football team during WWI, when factory workers became national heroes and international stars. Jacobs blends biography, social history, and political critique to expose how the Football Association’s 1921 ban silenced a movement, and how the women’s legacy endures.
