Shelter,
Rhonda Wilson, 2007, $30

Rhonda Wilson, introducing Shelter, argues oral history is important because it records the unofficial and personal history of the world as distinct from official history, largely the history of men’s power struggles and wars. Oral history tells the lives of the people. It is precious because it truly paints a picture of the traditions and culture of the times we live in. It fosters respect for the way people speak; the rhythms, the colloquialisms, the turns of phrase that characterise a particular people at a particular time.
