Crown, 2005-08-16. Hardcover. Very Good. 10x10x1. Hardcover and dust jacket. Good binding and cover. Shelf wear. Small tears to jacket. Edges chipped. Light foxing to top edge. Pages unmarked. <br> "Billie Jean King didn't want to play Bobby Riggs. He baited and begged her for months while she ignored his catcalls and challenges. But after Margaret Court's ignominious defeat in the so-called Mother's Day Massacre, Billie knew what she had to do despite the personal and professional risks: take on the self-proclaimed male chauvinist pig and slay the myths about women and weakness. And so it was that King's acquiescence led to the Battle of the Sexes, one of the most wildly surreal moments of the decadent 1970s. The worldwide event, showcasing three sets of tennis in a raucous Houston Astrodome, forever changed the social landscape for women.
