With extraordinary photographs and fact-filled essays, "Far From Home" gives the sports fan and the historian alike reason to celebrate the incredible rise of the number of Latino players in American baseball and the courage and conviction they have needed to accomplish this feat. In three compelling essays, Tim Wendel tells the story from the first game in Cuba in 1898 and the subsequent diaspora of baseball in the Caribbean all the way through the decades of player development and up to today and the prominence of the Latino player in the American leagues. Great photography of today's key players and past heroes energise the book. A timeline throughout highlights key moments. Because of our association with Major League Baseball, Tim Wendel has had amazing access to modern baseball stars. Jose Luis Villegas has also followed the players who didn't make it into the neighbourhoods of Brooklyn and the Bronx where they find employment and a Latino community.
