For anyone embarking on a biography of a family member, or of an autobiography this is a helpful guide. The best part are the lists that give specific questions to ask

Is or was retirement positive or negative ?
What old clothing can't you throw away. ( )

An invaluable tool for anyone wanting to write a memoir or conduct a family history interview. This book is geared towards the generation that remembers WWII, but is still useful for younger people. ( )

Bob Greene and D. G. Fulford have here written a book designed to help people put together a family history for their children, and their children's children. It is a book of questions, about many different aspects of everyday living, to help those reading the answers form a clearer picture of what life and love and work and family was like for the one answering. The questions are interesting, illuminating, and do a good job of covering life in all its commonality and beauty. I plan on using this book to make our own family history. ( )
