My new podcast is finally live. Hit that play button and join me for a fun ride

When blues master Robert Johnson's recordings were rereleased to great fanfare in the 1960s, little was known about his life, giving rise to legends that he gained success by selling his soul to the devil. Biography of a Phantom is musicologist Mack McCormick's search, from the late 1960s until McCormick's death in 2015, to uncover Johnson's life story. McCormick spent decades reconstructing Johnson's mysterious life and developing theories about his untimely death at the age of 27, but never made public his discoveries. Biography of a Phantom publishes his compelling work for the first time.

McCormick on History explores fascinating and often overlooked aspects of the history of the Carolinas, American history, and twentieth century European history. The histories of Eastern North Carolina, the Upstate of South Carolina, criminality, and sports receive particular attention.
