In this book, Kevin Tallec Marston and Mike Cronin investigate the history of the Oneida Football Club and reveal what really happened. They posit that these men engaged in self-memorialization to reinforce their elite cultural status during a period of tremendous social and economic change, and particularly increased immigration.
