520    The untold story of five women who fought to compete 
       against men in the high-stakes national air races of the 
       1920s and 1930s - and won Between the world wars, no sport
       was more popular, or more dangerous, than airplane racing.
       Thousands of fans flocked to multi-day events, and cities 
       vied with one another to host them. The pilots themselves 
       were hailed as dashing heroes who cheerfully stared death 
       in the face. Well, the men were hailed. Female pilots were
       more often ridiculed than praised for what the press 
       portrayed as silly efforts to horn in on a manly, and 
       deadly, pursuit. Fly Girls recounts how a cadre of women 
       banded together to break the original glass ceiling: the 
       entrenched prejudice that conspired to keep them out of 
       the sky. O'Brien weaves together the stories of five 
       remarkable women: Florence Klingensmith, a high-school 
       dropout who worked for a dry cleaner in Fargo, North 
       Dakota; Ruth Elder, an Alabama divorcee; Amelia Earhart, 
       the most famous, but not necessarily the most skilled; 
       Ruth Nichols, who chafed at the constraints of her blue-
       blood family's expectations; and Louise Thaden, the mother
       of two young kids who got her start selling coal in 
       Wichita. Together, they fought for the chance to race 
       against the men - and in 1936 one of them would triumph in
       the toughest race of all. Like Hidden Figures and Girls of
       Atomic City, Fly Girls celebrates a little-known slice of 
       history in which tenacious, trail-blazing women braved all
       obstacles to achieve greatness.
