“Bloomer Girls” in Clinton county, New York - a partial bibliography

I came across Barbara Gregorich's book Women at Play: The Story of Women in Baseball, Volume 1 the other day.  It reminded that I had done a bit of research on the "Bloomer Girls" in Clinton county, NY.  This was originally posted on my Mark's Ephemera blog almost four years ago.  Since I published that article the site move out from under the links.  I've corrected it there and have copied it over here.

For more information about "Bloomer Girls" the Library of Congress has a sampling of articles from historic newspapers.
