This html article is produced from an uncorrected text file through optical character recognition. Prior to 1940 articles all text has been corrected, but from 1940 to the present most still remain uncorrected. Artifacts of the scans are misspellings, out-of-context footnotes and sidebars, and other inconsistencies. Adjacent to each text file is a PDF of the article, which accurately and fully conveys the content as it appeared in the issue. The uncorrected text files have been included to enhance the searchability of our content, on our site and in search engines, for our membership, the research community and media organizations. We are working now to provide clean text files for the entire collection.

Insightful Memories of War Collected By A Leading Oral Historian
The Atlantic War Remembered
An Oral History Collection
By John T. Mason, lr.
From the U-boat-plagued convoys in the North Atlantic to the beaches of Normandy and the Big Three conference at Yalta, twenty-eight men and women who helped defeat Hitler's juggernaut in World War II relive their historic roles. Drawn from a vast collection of oral histories recorded by John T. Mason, Jr., between 1960 and 1982, these extraordinary eyewitness accounts provide be- hind-the-scene details and fresh perspectives of the war on the home front and overseas.
Mason introduces each contribution with a summary of the event described. The personal narratives that follow give far more insight into historic events than most scholarly analyses and provide hours of memorable reading. 5/2 pages/32 photographs/11 maps/index/ISBN: 0-87021-523-X.
