Buckskin, bloomers, and me [large print] / Johnny D. Boggs.
"When a sixteen-year-old boy learns that his stepmother and a local judge have murdered his father and now plan to kill him, he joins the Kansas City National Bloomer Girls, playing second base and disguised as a girl. Luckily, another Bloomer Girl, Buckskin Compton, alias Dolly Madison, is on the dodge after some shootings and beatings in Wyoming-and he takes the kid under his tutelage. Staying alive won't prove easy for either of the reluctant female impersonators as they deal with a budding romance, hitting slumps, a crooked manager, bean balls, drunken teammates, bank robbers, lousy umpires, a revolution for women's rights, and a rapidly changing Western frontier"-- Provided by publisher.
