Oral History
Considerable use has been made of tapes in the James Cook University Oral History collection and especially material collected by Caroline Strachan. During the last few years I have read with great interest two excellent oral history collections which have not been published to this moment. They are Jay and Peter Read’s A View of the Past and Louise Hercus and Peter Sutton’s This is What Happened.
