Canadian Historical Review

A project of University of Toronto Press (see other related projects).

About

Founded in 1920 as Canada’s national history journal, the Canadian Historical Review focuses on publishing articles and book reviews examining the history of Canada, including imperial, transnational, and comparative perspectives. Otherwise, the journal’s objectives remain today fundamentally what they were almost a hundred years ago: to publish high-quality, authoritative, and innovative articles in both English and French, based on original research and sound methodology. These articles are to reflect the best of the diversity within Canadian historical scholarship while, at the same time, speaking to our broad readership. In addition to research articles and the broadest selection of book reviews on Canadian-related historical subjects, the journal also promotes scholarly dialogue and debate through “Forums,” and “Historical Perspectives” features. These deal with methodological and historiographic questions that concern the diffusion of historical knowledge in the Canadian context from respectively either a single or multi-author perspective.
