2006. The authors write: Glass Walls began
as an examination and reflection on our combined 50 year
careers in corporate America. Through
countless interviews with women and men, from a multitude
of professions and industries, we begin to develop a better
understanding of the dynamics within organizations. We
gained poignant insights from real experiences of women
as they progressed beyond the Glass Ceiling. Glass
Walls became symbolic of the invisible barrier that surrounds
the inner sanctum of empowered males and their chosen associates
who typically dominate corporations. It is this Glass
Wall that contributes to the isolation and marginalization
women encounter in the workplace. It is our belief
that a better understanding of the Glass Wall barrier can
be a starting point for women trying to navigate obstacles
and seek opportunities within their respective companies.

"Signal thanks to journalist Swift for this
authoritative biography of Charles Albert Bender, the early 20th-century
pitcher who managed to shine in both the big leagues and in life
while confronting poverty and racism. Swift sets aside the myths
about this most famous American Indian player while vividly describing
him in the context of the famed Carlisle Indian School, baseball's
Golden Age, Connie Mack and his Athletics, and the effects of gambling
and alcoholism on sports. For all interested in the First Nations,
quite apart from baseball."
