Ice in their veins : women's relentless pursuit of the puck / Ian Kennedy.
Hockey wasn't meant to include girls. Women attracted to the speed, finesse and physicality of the game had to overcome condescending attitudes, lack of resources, legal barriers and even sexual assault in their quest for legitimacy and ice time. For more than 150 years, their femininity was questioned, monitored, hidden, disparaged and trivialized. Even so, teams were formed and stars emerged. These are the stories of women who truly had ice in their veins.
