In neighborhoods, schools, community centers, and workplaces,
people are using oral history to capture and collect the kinds of
stories that the history books and the media tend to overlook:
stories of personal struggle and hope, of war and peace, of family
and friends, of beliefs, traditions, and values--the stories of our
lives. "Catching Stories: A Practical Guide to Oral History" is a
clear and comprehensive introduction for those with little or no
experience in planning or implementing oral history projects.
Opening with the key question, "Why do oral history?" the guide
outlines the stages of a project from idea to final product--the
interviewing process, basic technical principles, and audio and
video recording techniques. The guide covers interview
transcription, legal issues, archiving, funding sources, and
sharing oral history with audiences. Intended for teachers,
students, librarians, local historians, and volunteers as well as
individuals, "Catching Stories" is the place to start for anyone
who wants to document the memories and collect the stories of
community or family.
