Advantages of oral history:
Perspectives exposed through oral history are relative truths that can be weighed in piecing together historical dialogues. The knowledge gained through researching oral testimony often highlights the accounts of individuals whose stories are often overlooked and can provide insight into peoples history that has been generalized by strictly referring to partisan history.
Disadvantages:Individual testimony is highly bias and often two accounts of the same event will contradict. Even memories shared by the same individual can be contradicting because psychology has taught us that individuals often make alterations in their memory and exceptions in their beliefs in order to make sense of them.For a good source on oral history check out "Houses of History" by Green and Troup pp. 230-252
