An Excellent First Person Perspective of Human Nature

I don't think that I have ever found so much personal history, so much tragedy, and relevance to reality in anything that I have ever read. This book has gotten me very interested in oral histories. The student will find it useful for references and a picture of history from the first person. The reader will be mesmerized by the emotions of history that this book gives, emotions that are often hidden by facts and theories.
