Descrizione

This book chronicles the Hawaiian Travelers, a barnstorming baseball team of multiethnic, multiracial Hawaiians, who played across the continental continent from 1912 through 1916. This team took on college, semi-professional, minor league, and African American nines. In the process, they won the majority of these games, while subverting venerable racial conventions. It also describes the experiences of some of these players after 1916 as they sought baseball careers on the East Coast of the U.S. mainland. Significantly, this book will shed light on a generally untold story about baseball, race, and colonization in the U.S. during the early decades of the twentieth century.
