A Selective Bibliography of Oral History MICHAEL D. GIBSON This bibliography is "selective" in the sense that it is not comprehensive and it is concerned mainly with sources that pertain to the techniques of oral history. For those wishing a comprehensive bibliography, Manfred Waserman's Bibliography on Oral History (1975) and John Fox's "Bibliography Up-Date" in The Oral History Review (1977) should be consulted. Since the bibliography emphasizes the "how-to-do" (technique) aspect of oral history and the ways oral history can be utilized in the classroom, it is hoped it will be most useful to individuals and groups starting an oral history program.
