What is the author's style in Hard Times; an Oral History of the Great Depression by Studs Terkel?

Studs Terkel is a chronicler at heart, and more than anything he simply allows his subjects in Hard Times to talk. Clearly, when dealing with labor organization or the New Deal, his sympathies lie with union leaders and fighters against poverty. Occasionally, in Terkel's questioning, one can detect a certain note of incredulity, as when Charles Stewart Mott and Harry Norgard decry the treachery of the Flint Sit-Down Strike by citing faulty historical data. In terms of the interviewees, their perspectives are divided into three camps: those for the New Deal, those against it, and the young.
