The Chicago Cubs, originally known as the Chicago White Stockings, have a rich and fascinating history that spans over a century. This book delves into the team's early years, from their founding in 1870 to the end of the 19th century, exploring their successes, challenges, and notable figures.
Early Years (1870-1890)
The team quickly established themselves as one of the top teams in the National League, winning their first pennant in 1876 and back-to-back pennants in 1880 and 1881. Led by Cap Anson, the team won six National League pennants between 1876 and 1886.
Transition to Cubs (1890-1902)
After Cap Anson's departure in 1897, the team went through several name changes, including 'Colts' and 'Orphans,' before officially becoming the Cubs in 1903. This period also saw the formation of the American League and the adoption of the White Stockings' nickname by the Chicago White Sox.
