Review Quotes:
" It could not be an easy task to put together a collection of essays on American sport that gives a reasonable picture of what was happening historically across a nation so vast and populus. The editors intend the books to "provide greater insight into the ways in which sport illuminates other components of American culture" (1). On the whole, they succeed." - Wray Vamplew, University of Edinburgh
