His writing has been called "thoroughly original and completely authentic" by fellow Kentucky native Fenton Johnson. He is the grandson of noted virologist and naturalist Wilbur G. Downs. He is a B.A. graduate of Yale University, where his advisor was Bancroft Prize-winning historian Melvin Patrick Ely.Along with his fiction writing, Downs is also an historian, with a Ph.D. from the University of Pennsylvania, where his dissertation supervisor was Pulitzer-Prize winning historian Steven Hahn. He studies 19th-century American political culture, and is an Assistant Professor at the City College of New York. Declarations of Dependence was called "brilliant, imaginative, and deeply researched" by historian Scott Nelson, a "rare achievement" by historian Laura Edwards, and a "carefully crafted and deeply researched study" by Civil War historian James M.
