Narrative history of the Negro Southern League from its inception with eight teams in major Southern cities until its demise three decades later. It was born as a baseball minor league that operated off and on from 1920 to 1951. It served as a valuable feeder system to the Negro National League and the Negro American League. During its history, more than 80 teams were members of the league, representing 40 cities in a dozen states. In the end only four teams remained, operating more as semipro than professional teams.
