Fieldwork deals with the practical, mechanical, ethical, and
theoretical aspects of collecting data. Jackson discusses how
fieldworkers define their role, how they relate to others in the
field, and how they go about recording for later use what occurred
in their presence. This treatment offers an abundance of useful
information to those who do folklore fieldwork as well as those who
work in any of the other social sciences or humanities. An appendix
relates the author's own experiences while documenting Texas's
death row.
