Hastily formed in 1883 as a rival, third major league, the Union Association upset the moguls of the baseball world and disrupted the status quo. Backed by Henry V. Lucas, an impetuous 26-year-old millionaire from St. Louis, the UA existed for one chaotic season in 1884. This first full-length history of the Union Association tells the captivating story of the league's brief and enigmatic existence. Lucas recruited a wild mix of disgruntled stars, misfits, crooks, has-beens, drunks, and the occasional spectator--along with a future star or two. The result was a bizarre experiment that sowed both turmoil and hope before fading into oblivion.
St Louis played a key role as a strategic staging ground for the Union Army in the American Civil War. This is a portrait of a war-torn city, encompassing a wide range of events such as the murder of publisher Elijah Lovejoy, the infamous Dred Scott saga, battles in the city, and more.
Scott is a military brat whose father is the squad leader of the Thunderbirds, the world famous military jet team. When Scott comes up with a plan to get his father's attention, he ends up putting his father's life in danger.
