Minnie Minoso. Martin Dihigo. Luis Tiant Sr. and Jr. Orlando "El Duque" and Livan Hernandez. These are only a few of the leading lights profiled in Cuban Baseball Legends: Baseball's Alternative Universe. The 47 individuals profiled here represent only a small handful of the legions of memorable and sometimes even legendary figures produced over nearly a century and a half by an island nation where the bat-and-ball sport known as baseball is more than a national pastime, it is the national passion. The book presents 47 biographies in all, plus essays on Cuban baseball.
