Baseball During The American Civil War
[ send me this essay ]
5 pages in length.

Albert Doubleday – a name synonymous with baseball – was a Civil War General who, historians have determined, was not the original founder of America's most popular sporting game. That notwithstanding, Doubleday's involvement in baseball's Civil War presence is what has come to represent the start of a national tradition. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
