Cincinnati was home to three major Negro League Teams: the Cincinnati-Cuban Stars, the Cincinnati Tigers and the Cincinnati Clowns. In addition, several black semi-professional teams played a part in the formation of Cincinnati's Negro League teams. This book is a chronological exploration of Black baseball in Cincinnati, covering both professional and semi-professional African American players from 1870-1970.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Being geographically situated between the North and South, Cincinnati has been at the center of racial tensions throughout its history. African Americans in Cincinnati overcame endemic racist attitudes to organize these competitive professional baseball teams. Through the efforts of many, some anonymous and others who are known yet under recognized, Negro League baseball found a home in Cincinnati. This book presents a rich history of Cincinnati baseball through the lives of its black contributors, both on and off the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paul Debono\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1476688036\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781476688039\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McFarland \u0026amp; Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/03\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 120\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 0.41d","brand":"Paul Debono","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48437486125311,"sku":"9781476688039","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4051447a-775b-4e03-b53e-5b1958052253.jpg?v=1777162134","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/black-baseball-in-cincinnati-paul-debono-9781476688039","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
