Ira Berlin (May 27, 1941 - June 5, 2018) was an American historian, professor of history at the University of Maryland, and former president of Organization of American Historians. Berlin is the author of such books as Many Thousands Gone: The First Two Centuries of Slavery in North America. In the 1930's, the Works Progress Administration dispatched writers all over America to interview the last remaining black witnesses to slavery. Long ignored by historians, the recordings and printed interviews gained the attention of scholars during the civil rights movement. The narratives, once dismissed as historical ephemera, had moved to the center of the study of slavery. Using excerpts from the thousands of interviews conducted with ex-slaves in the 1930s by researchers working with the Federal Writer's Project, this astonishing collection makes available in print the only known recordings of people who actually experienced slavery--recordings that had gathered dust in the Library of Congress until they were rendered audible for the first time specifically for this collection. Heralded as "a minor miracle" (Ted Koppel, Nightline), "powerful and intense" (Atlanta Journal Constitution), and "invaluable" (Chicago Tribune), Remembering Slavery is sure to enrich readers for years to come. "Gripping and poignant. Moving recollections fill a void in the slavery literature." -The Washington Post Book World "Chilling [and] riveting. This project will enrich every American home and classroom." -Publisher's Weekly "Quite literally, history comes alive in this unparalleled work." -Library Journal "Ira Berlin's fifty-page introduction is as good a synthesis of current scholarship as one will find, filled with fresh insights for any reader." -The San Diego Union Tribune.…
