The common theme among these books is women's involvement and achievements in sports, particularly in traditionally male-dominated fields such as mountaineering, golf, and river guiding. Many of the books also focus on the physical and emotional benefits that women gain from participating in sports. Additionally, some of the books shed light on the challenges and obstacles that women face in these fields, including discrimination and abuse.
