Description:Essays in the first of the volume's six sections, ?The African American Experience, ? examine Negro League playing styles as cultural expression, media coverage of Curt Flood's battle against MLB, and autobiographical accounts by Flood and Jackie Robinson that recall slave-narrative tradition. In ?The Women's Game? the legacy of Title IX is explored, along with gender constructions at the time of the AAGPBL. Teams and their towns are the focus of ?Baseball and Community.? In ?Baseball Ideology? the game's films, wartime rhetoric, and the approaches to its ethnic history are investigated. Essays in ?Biography: Baseball Lives? relate the true stories of a Depression-era felon treated to a World Series game at Wrigley and the post?Katrina struggles of pitching great Mel Parnell. Finally, in ?The Business of Baseball, ? essayists gauge the effects of the recent steroids scandal, three decades of free agency, and MLB's new global perspective.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
