Synopsis

Oral history is different: it involves working directly with people, and it opens up areas of human experience that official records ignore, by illuminating the lives of ordinary men and women. This introduction to the subject is full of wise advice - and also of many incidental pleasures. It shows that, while oral history may be a natural field for the amateur researcher, properly handled the results need in no way be amateur history.
