All,
*Ballasts, Dead Beats and Muffins: Inside Early Baseball in Illinois*, by
Robert D. Sampson (editor of Journal of the Illinois State Historical
Society and author of *John L Sullivan and his times*.
"Focusing on the years 1865-1869, Sampson offers a vivid portrait of a game
where local teams and civic ambition went hand in hand and teams of paid
professionals displaced gentlemen's clubs devoted to sporting fair play."

*Women's American Football: Breaking barriers on and off the gridiron, *by
Russ Crawford (Professor of history, Ohio Northern University)
"A narrative history of girls and women participating in American football
since the 1920s, when a women's team played at halftime during an early NFL
game."
