Reviews
"Murray interviewed dozens of players to assemble a moving insider's account of their struggle for respect and attention." -- Financial Times
"Journalist Caitlin Murray's timely history of the team shows how those two kinds of thread have always been intertwined, and she renders in-game heroics and ongoing struggles against an obstinate sports media and U.S. Soccer Federation with equal dynamism" -- Vanity Fair
"sportswriter Murray interviewed almost 100 players and coaches for her history of the U.S. women's national soccer team, which chronicles the squad from its formation in 1985 to its three World Cup championships. Soccer star Brandi Chastain said Murray did "a wonderful job sharing the history, personal stories, and memories of the national team." -- Los Angeles Times
"a book that will quickly bring any fan, casual or expert, up to speed on the team's history." -- Book Riot
