These reformers took inspiration from the country's dissenters and progressive movements, speaking and acting against abuses within their profession and their country. Elias and Dreier profile the courageous players who demanded better working conditions, battled against corporate power, and challenged America's unjust wars, imperialism, and foreign policies, resisting the brash patriotism that many link with the national pastime. For over one hundred years, baseball activists have challenged the status quo to create a more humane society, and Major League Rebels tells their inspiring stories."-- Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Art, Music & Recreation 796.35709 El Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 796.35709 El Checked In Add Copy to MyList
