Pulitzer Prize-winning oral historian Studs Terkel's "greatest hits." Terkel's oral histories have been enjoyed by millions of Americans, and have earned him a Pulitzer Prize, induction into The American Academy of Arts and Letters, The National Humanities Medal, and The National Book Foundation Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters, among other honors. My American Century collects the best of his interviews and the introductions from each of his eight classic books, along with a major new introduction to Terkel's work by Robert Coles. It is a both stellar collection of portraits and a panoramic chronicle of America from the 1920s onward.
