GREENER GRASS: Cuba, Baseball and the United States

by Aaron Woolf, Rudolph Callegari and Nancy Roth

Since 1866, Cubans have lovingly played baseball, a game that has represented both independence and modernity. Set against the backdrop of choppy U.S.-Cuban relations, GREENER GRASS documents how both countries have used baseball as a political tool and how the sport has operated as both bridge and barrier between the two lands.
