His grit and stubbornness, however, form a legacy that has been both lauded and condemned by America's own changing views of ideal masculine behavior. With attention to Cobb's formation, personal tragedies, and struggles with his peers, Steven Elliott Tripp examines this baseball icon as a product of the American South and as an emblem of a masculinity now out of fashion.Baseball playersUnited StatesBiographyBaseballSocial aspectsMasculinity in sportsBaseball playersBaseballSocial aspects.Masculinity in sports.796.357092Tripp Steven Elliott1956-1542430MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910798338103321Ty Cobb, baseball, and American manhood3795189UNINA
