This volume is an effort to resuscitate the political heart that beats in the sports world--to have a history that critically examines the political forces as well as the political power at work in the world of sports" (Zirin xii). "But in North and South, among black and white, sports became a necessary release for those denied a seat at Alexander Hamilton's table." (8). "Sports could deflect tensions away from an oppressive social structure and channel energy into safe activities that taught the modern industrial values of hard work, cooperation, and self-discipline, and thereby help secure social order." (Zirin 26)
