In the mid 1960s, C. Vann Woodward was asked to organize a program of broadcast        lectures on US history for the Voice of America as part of a longer series designed        to acquaint foreign audiences with leaders in American arts and sciences. Reasoning        that a comparative approach "e;was peculiarly adapted to the interests and needs of        foreign audiences,"e; Woodward commissioned twenty-two noted scholars to cover classic        topics in American history--the Civil War, the World Wars, slavery, immigration, and        many others--but to add a comparative dimension by relating these topics to        developments elsewhere in the world. The result was the 1968 Basic Books edition of        The Comparative Approach to American History.Now, three decades later, Oxford is        very pleased to be reissuing this classic collection of historical essays in a        paperback edition, with a new introduction by Woodward that discusses the decline        and resurgence of comparative history since the 1960s.
