Discussion of the political, social, and economic conidtions of the U.S. in the period after Reconstruction.
The newly formed NL was strong enough to defeat competition from 3 other leagues but was also guilty of codifying two ills: creation of the reserve clause which bound a player to 1 team, and barred blacks from play. The senior league underwent a host of rule changes (balls, strikes, distance from pitcher's mound to home plate), but ill-tempered players, riotous fans, and corrupt owners made the former Western League (now known as the American League) an attractive option in 1901.
The Chicago Cubs might not be the oldest team in MLB history (that honor belongs to the Cincinnati Reds) but they have a long, long history and an equally long, long story to tell. This team was first known as the White Stockings, and they dominated the field often during the first quarter century. They also included Adrian "Cap" Anson, star batter and 1B who was instrumental banning blacks from playing. This played in quaint parks where left field was just 180' away, and they also played ball on the city's south side! Note this: Babe Ruth's 29 HRs in 1919 broke the previous HR mark of 27 set by a Cubs (whoops, White Stockings!) infielder in 1884. Now that was an odd year: pitchers were finally allowed to throw the ball overhand, the owners instituted a salary cap, and 6 balls was a walk. By the way, the club's previous record for HRs in a season was four. So read on and enjoy!
U.S. History is designed to meet the scope and sequence requirements of most introductory courses. The text provides a balanced approach to U.S. history, considering the people, events, and ideas that have shaped the United States from both the top down (politics, economics, diplomacy) and bottom up (eyewitness accounts, lived experience). U.S. History covers key forces that form the American experience, with particular attention to issues of race, class, and gender.
