Named a 'Living Heritage Treasure' by the Alberta Museums' Association in 1993, George L. Davies is the subject of today's oral history interview. A teacher by trade, Davies describes life in Strathcona and his decades of work with the Edmonton Public School Board.
These interviews were recorded in the 1960s, 70s, and 80s. Both social attitudes and language standards have changed since that time. Some opinions expressed and language used may be offensive to listeners today.
