It showcases the remarkable depth of his personal knowledge of the diverse subjects explored in his interviews and his ability to get others to talk about themselves and what they do best."Teachers around the world know that Terkel is the best oral historian we've ever had, and have used his works to bring home the first-person narratives of important historical events like World War II, the Great Depression and the Civil Rights Movement. On this website can be found audio recordings of several of his interviews, and educational resources to assist in the uses of primary resources and doing oral histories. |
