Practicing Oral History with Military and War Veterans is a comprehensive guide that focuses primarily on conducting oral history with men and women who have served in recent wars and military conflicts. This book offers a structured methodology for building interest and trust among veterans, facilitating the conduct of interviews, designing oral history projects, and archiving and utilizing these oral history interviews. It provides a comprehensive background on the evolution of veterans' oral history, covering key aspects such as the historical context, ethical considerations, interview procedures, and the immense value of preserving veterans' stories.

By understanding these nuances, the book aims to enhance our understanding of the personal, ethical, and psychological challenges associated with listening compassionately to veterans' stories, which may encompass issues related to trauma, gender, socio-economics, race, dis/ability, and ethnicity.
This book serves as a valuable resource for community scholars, students, oral historians, and families of veterans. It encourages active participation in the oral history process and promotes the adoption of methodology that can assist in designing and conducting oral history projects and interviewing war veterans. By leveraging the insights and experiences of these individuals, we can deepen our understanding of the past, honor the contributions of veterans, and foster a greater appreciation for the sacrifices they have made for our society.
