Oral History Subjects Needed
I am currently working on a collection of oral histories to be published Fall 2010. If you, or someone you know would be interested in participating in this project, please contact me.
I am specifically looking for subjects 60 and over who have roots in Western North Carolina. It does not matter if you currently live out of state as long as you have access to email as I have completed several interviews for the book by email.
My contact information is...

Dawn,
I don't know if you are familiar with my book The Secret of War but it is based on oral history. I have added fiction in places to fill in the historical blanks. It is probably now the best known of oral histories in Henderson County. If you'd like a copy drop me a line.
Thanks,
Terrell Garren

Dawn,
I don't know what your are looking for but I am past 60. Im fact way past . On my next birthday in April I will be 88.
I grew up in the mountains of western North Carolina. "Canton". I have wrote 3 books since retirement. Two are published and the third one is at the publisher now.
I have started a fourth book. All my books are about hapenings in those mountains where I lived untill WW-2. If I can be of help with your project contact me at,
