This engaging set of essays demonstrates how individual sports were changed forever when the law was brought to bear on practices that were thought to be so important that they needed no defense. One of the strengths of the essays is that they focus directly on how the law affected the lives of individuals and in so doing set the stage for new con-ditions that would affect players, officials, teams, leagues, fans, and even governmental jurisdictions for decades to come. --CHARLES KORR, author of The End of Baseball As We Knew It: The Players' Union, 1960-1981
