The Oral History Workshop

This practical and inspirational guide to collecting, sharing, and preserving oral histories breaks down the process into easily manageable steps and provides hundreds of questions to jump start interviews. Chapters cover preparing for the interview, mapping out the interview, recording and troubleshooting the interview, preserving the material, and turning the interview into something more (a scrapbook, an oral history project, donation to an archive, etc.)  Put this resource in the hands of young students and ask them to interview their parents or grandparents and watch history come alive!
