The Oral History Reader

The Oral History Reader, now in its third edition, is a comprehensive, international anthology combining major, ‘classic’ articles with cutting-edge pieces on the theory, method and use of oral history. Twenty-six new chapters introduce the most recent and significant developments in oral history in the last decade to bring this invaluable text up to date, with new pieces on framing a project, digitisation and more international examples to draw in experiences from North and South America, Britain and Europe, Australasia, Asia and Africa.

With a revised and updated bibliography and useful contacts list, as well as a dedicated online resources page, this third edition of The Oral History Reader is the perfect tool for those encountering oral history for the first time, as well as for seasoned practitioners.
