Coaches have played a vital yet changing role throughout basketball's professional history. Biographical Directory of Professional Basketball Coaches is a comprehensive directory of all the professional coaches in the history of United States basketball. Jeff Marcus provides, in alphabetical order, the year-by-year coaching records for every pro major league coach in basketball history beginning with the American Basketball League (ABL), which formed in 1925 and was the first league to play in larger arenas on the East Coast and in the Mid West, then tracking the birth of the National Basketball League (NBL) from its onset in 1937 to its convergence 12 years later with the BAA, forming what we know today as the NBA.

Whose Baseball?
Franks (history, San Jose State University) analyzes the relationship between baseball and the history of cultural diversity in California. He addresses the importance of sports and sport history, the significance of regional history, and the uses of connecting these pursuits to an understanding of American history from the period of the Civil War to the beginning of World War II. He also argues, in the tradition of CLR James, that to understand the game one must look beyond its rules and play to consider its relationship to society-wide systems of inequality, exploitation, and exclusion. c.
