Beschreibung:
STEPHEN M. SLOAN is the director of the Institute for Oral History and an associate professor of history at Baylor University. LOIS E. MYERS is associate director of the Institute for Oral History. MICHELLE HOLLAND is the editor for the Institute for Oral History and produced the weekly radio program Living Stories.
For more than forty years the Institute for Oral History at Baylor University has dutifully gathered the flesh-and-blood memories of the World War II generation in the state of Texas.Representing a cross-section of Texas' population and a wide range of wartime assignments, these recollections reveal the personal perspectives on many events and figures of World War II. On land, in air, and by sea, in the Pacific and in Europe, they fought for America's future. With the clear ring of authenticity and a surprising immediacy, even after all these years, their stories make a global war personal.
