When eight members of the Chicago White Sox were accused of throwing the 1919 World Series, the team became known as the "Black Sox". "Hoopla" blends the narrative of team member George Weaver with the view of Luther Pond, who exposed the scandal. Filled with cameo portraits of prominent sports legends of the early 20th century, this novel brings to life an era when America was passionate, even patriotic, about baseball; and one reporter's words had the power to rock a nation.
