Baseball beyond Borders

This book takes a close look at the international ballplayers, managers, and officials in Major League Baseball from 1876 to 2012. It is not only a comprehensive history of foreigners in baseball, but also an examination of the impact and significance of these individuals on the sport, including their influence on the minor leagues and on the expansion, development, and popularity of baseball in the U.S. and elsewhere.
