By Nathan Aaseng
Aaseng's smooth, easy style accurately captures the development of this star athlete's quest to break world records in the women's sprints. Griffith Joyner, the seventh of 11 children, began her running career chasing rabbits in the Mojave Desert. Two decades of racing--from the desert to seven world records in the women's 100 meters--are described along with her capture of three gold medals and one silver medal in the 1988 Seoul Olympics. Her hard work and flamboyant style are chronicled in both the text and in black-and-white photographs (which can't entirely do justice to her unique running costumes and highly decorated fingernails). Any reader interested in track and field, the Olympics, or women in sports will find the biography informative.
