• W1570553807 abstract "John B. Wiseman, ed. Joy in Mudville: Essays on Baseball and American Life. Jefferson, NC: McFarland, 2010. 252 pp. Paper, $39.95. Historian and enthusiast John B. Wiseman has brought together a fine collection of essays, personal reflections, and interviews that provide a history of the game of baseball, as well as a reminder of why it has remained popular despite its many setbacks. In fact, one of the great joys of this collection is the candid treatment of the social, financial, and other problems faced by the leagues, the various teams, and individual players. Far from a romantic paean to the national pastime, Joy in Mudville provides astute criticism as well as careful analysis, sure to be of interest to both the casual reader as well as academic historians, to say nothing of baseball's devoted fans.

Ultimately, as Peter Morris persuasively argues in his contribution, is America's game precisely because America as a whole shaped its development; in both its style of play and its history, is a truly democratic endeavor. Part III, Transcending Race, is, in the opinion of this reviewer, the gem of this collection. Bringing together three pieces about Jackie Robinson and one on Minnie Minoso, this section reminds its readers just how important racial integration was to the survival of in an America that witnessed rapidly changing racial demographics and significant social upheaval over questions of racial equality. …" @default.
