James C. Cobb offers many original insights into Woodward's early years and private life, his long career, and his almost mythic public persona. In a time where the study and substance of American history are profoundly contested, Woodward's career is replete with lessons in how myths about the past, some created by historians themselves, come to be enshrined as historical truth.

Dr. Cobb is B. Phinizy Spalding Professor Emeritus & the author of C. Vann Woodward: America's Historian.
