The collection consists of two 16mm, negative, microfilms of the product of a Clio Grant awarded to Dr. John Bodnar, Indiana University, 24 January 1991.
The grant proposed a study of generational memory in Whiting, Lake County, Indiana. The premise for this project stipulated that the differences between the memories and values of a generation in the United States and the impact of historic events upon the creation of those memories and values help to create what are referred to as "generations." In this project the memories of people living during the great depression and World War II are contrasted with those of individuals living after the war.
