“Textbook history is arrived at by consensus, dulled at the edges. It is drawn from careful inspection of documents and limited by the records one can find…but for the memoirist, history and memory conflate to form a story we want to tell about ourselves." --June Cross from Tell Me True: Memoir, History, and Writing a Life, edited by Patricia Hampl and Elaine Tyler, 2008.
