Maus

On page 56 of Maus by Art Spiegelman. The WWII veteran (interviewee) takes time to emphasis the important points to his son (interviewer). Oral histories are the histories taken by historians of normal people, to get a general picture of how life may have been at the time. The father explains to his son what his life was like during WWII both during his time of fighting but mostly of how lives in the internment camps were. The son is documenting the oral history of WWII through his father.
