Abstract:

North Carolina was the stronghold of downhome baseball during the period between the two world wars. The state had more than fifty minor league teams, more than any other state at that time. Williams recounts a time when the players had fun, the fans had a party every night, and the team owners made money, or at least didn't lose too much.
