The Detroit Tigers were founding members of the American League and
have been the Motor City's team for more than a century. But the
Wolverines were the city's first major league club, playing in the
National League beginning in 1881 and capturing the pennant in
1887. Playing in what was then one of the best ballparks in
America, during an era when Detroit was known as the ""Paris of the
West,"" the team battled hostile National League owners and
struggled with a fickle fan base to become world champions, before
financial woes led to their being disbanded in 1888. This first
ever history of the Wolverines covers the team's rise and abrupt
fall and the powerful men behind it.
