Welcome

To celebrate the 75th anniversary of the 1934 All American tour of Japan, over the next month I will post daily updates on this remarkable event.  Follow Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Moe Berg and their teammates as they travel through Japan, China, and the Philippines.   The story contains international diplomacy, espionage, attempted murder and, of course, baseball. 

For more information on my upcoming book on the tour Banzai Babe Ruth! Baseball Diplomacy and Fanaticism in Imperial Japan, visit http://robfitts.com/Banzai_Babe_Ruth.htm.
