Author Mark Franek discusses his new book that tracks over 150 years of U.S. soccer history, from its early roots in immigrant communities and the legacy of Bethlehem Steel to the sport’s cyclical struggles to take root in America. He highlights how the pivotal 1994 World Cup transformed the landscape, paving the way for Major League Soccer’s (MLS) journey from a rocky, slow start to its current boom.
