The Goddess and the American Girl by Larry Englemann PDF Summary

Book Description: A superb dual biography, the first of either player to appear in English. It follows the careers of both women from the time they first set foot on a tennis court. In Europe & America in the 1920s & '30s they were better known & more admired than any movie star, politician, or royal family member. Suzanne Lenglen adapted power tennis to women's play. She was the first non-English-speaking woman to win the Wimbledon singles championship -- a title she held six times between 1919-1925. Helen Wills beat Lenglen's Wimbledon record & won every singles match she entered from 1926 to 1933. Photos.
