@amjones1989 I had surprisingly good success with David Chappell's Stone of Hope a few years ago.

I've admired @JamesMcFeelgood's work at @RethinkingHist since I was a wee graduate student. Really happy to finally be publishing something there.

The scholars are recording convos w friends/fam who lived between 50s-80s to talk about changes in food/ag this week.

I HIGHLY recommend incorporating short oral history exercises in classes. I'm getting so many emails abt happy reconnections with grandparents😭

Giving The Archive from @ctietze a spin. So far: all the good of #nvalt (no proprietary database of file format, super fast search, etc), but more powerful and more suited for researchers. Check it out! https://t.co/EjWl4nmSMi

Seen in the wild at #ASEH2018. I have held it in my hands, @DaeganMiller and it looks fabulous.

[William Thomas Okie @wtokie]

And you can get a used copy of the paperback for about 40% more than the new one! Awesome!

[William Thomas Okie @wtokie]
