Ty Cobb: A Terribly Beauty By Charles Leerhsen.

Basically goes through the entirety of Cobb's career, and addresses most of the biggest incidences that people point to as proof of Cobb's racism.

This is one thing I wish more baseball fans knew. They discuss it on this episode of the Freakonomics podcast. One of his biographers, Al Stump, seemed to be pretty loose with the details, but nevertheless created the image of Cobb that comes to mind when most people think of him. This isn't to say the guy was a saint, but his life could do with some closer examination.

A new bio by the guy on that podcast is actually coming out quite soon.
