Description

This book examines how sports have evolved into essential elements in forging nationhood in American history. From horse racing, hunting, and prize fighting in the colonial era and early republic to the grand troika of baseball, basketball, and football more than two centuries later, sport has long been at the centre of debates about national identity.

This book was published as a special issue of the International Journal of the History of Sport.
