5.0 out of 5 stars
Showing the Best for Oral History and Memory Research,
By Arthur B. Shostak (Narberth, PA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Archives of Memory: A Soldier Recalls World War II (Hardcover)
Throughgoing in pioneering scholarship and artistic in execution, this unique wife-husband collaboration advances the art of oral history, butresses the case for using memory and recognition in histories, and reads like a fine novel. Thanks to Alice's interviewing craft, Howard's rich memories of his varied WW11 experiences are validated. Oral history techniques are thereby improved, and the reader is treated all along to a very good read. Bold in conception, careful in completion, the book will reward all curious about the strengths and limitations of recall and recognition as scholarly aids. Any others open to learning more truth than ever about war will also be well rewarded
