Oral history interview with C. Vann Woodward, January 12, 1991 [electronic resource] : interview A-0341, Southern Oral History Program Collection (#4007).
C. Vann Woodward, one of the great lights of southern history, reflects on race relations in the American South, his own experiences there, and some of the contributions historians have made to the field. Unfortunately, the interviewer spends more time sharing his opinions than drawing out Woodward's, and Woodward's age at the time of the interview (he was 82) may have affected its quality.
