* Announcement: New Cuba baseball book and seminar to launch in Great Britain

January 26, 2009

As announced on the Cuba Journal blog. Seems like a strange place to host it, but better there than nowhere.

“In this seminar, Thomas Carter introduces his new book on how baseball has played a significant role since the nineteenth century in Cuban society and in the formation of Cuban national identity and how it continues to resonate with everyday life and politics to this day.”

Admission to the program — to be held Feb. 3 in the Henry Thomas Room,
Tower Building,  London Metropolitan University — is free but reservations are required; write to admin@cubastudies.org.

If you’re visiting GB and feel a bit homesick for the national pastime, seems like a nice way to reconnect.
