Abstract

The article discusses the book "Who Killed Canadian History?" by Canadian historian Dr. J. L. Granatstein. He argues in his book that Canadian academic historians have ignored their public duty by taking a disdainful view of Canadian history. He believes that Canadian history is one of national accomplishment. The article suggests that Canadian history is more complex than Granatstein suggests and that most historians would agree that there is a lack of education in Canadian history.
