"An inspiring and intimate self-portrait by Billie Jean King, the champion of equality, that encompasses her brillinat tennis career and unwavering commitment to social justice even as she was engaged in a private struggle to publicly and unequivocally be her true self. Billie Jean King was the first of her kind, a woman athlete who became a global cultural icon because of her pioneering activism as much as her spectacular playing career. A handful of other female athletes had taken stands here or there before, but King was the first to outwardly rebel and then carry the fight for women as a group. She is an original. Her watershed "Battle of the Sexes: match against Bobby Riggs in 1973 was watched by an estimated 90 million people worldwide. What started for King as a young girl's quest for individual freedom expanded into broader issues over time. In this spirited account, King describes the rollicking early days of the pro tennis world she pushed to create and her evolution into a thirty-nine-time Grand Slam champion, an activist, a feminist, a political influencer, and a public figure who was at first so fearful of admitting her sexual identity, and then so closeted once she did, her physical and emotional health suffered. King recounts in vivid detail the cultural backdrop of those years and the profound impact on her worldview from the civil rights movement, the women's movement, the Cold War, the assassinations and antiwar protests of the 1960s, and, later, the LGBTQ+ rights movement. She poignantly describes her oft-submerged struggle to be her "authentic self" - the hard-won place where her public and private lives converged, though not until the age of fifty-one, after she narrowly averted financial peril when she was outed and sought in-patient treatment for an eating disorder fourteen years later. All In is a bracingly candid and complex autobiography of an athlete-activist that reminds us of the scale of her challenges and triumphs, vision and courage. As King notes, so many of the issues she and others have fougnt for are being reargued today. All In situates King in a new context - the here and now - looking backward (and forward) with the benefit of her accumulated wisdom, grace, and insights. The result is the story of a woman with an indomitable spirit who continues to advocate for equity and inclusion today." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.
