The editors use the unique lens of the history of sports to examine
ethnic experiences in North America since 1840. Comprised of 12
original essays and an Introduction, it chronicles sport as a
social institution through which various ethnic and racial groups
attempted to find the way to social and psychological acceptance
and cultural integration. Included are chapters on Native
Americans, Irish-Americans, German-Americans, Canadians,
African-Americans, Italian-Americans, Hispanics, and several more,
showing how their sports participation also provided these
communities with some measure of social mobility, self-esteem, and
a shared pride.
