Congratulations
to Shirley Tillotson, who was chosen as the English-language
recipient of the Hilda Neatby Prize, 2010, sponsored by the
Canadian Committee on Women's History. Dr. Tillotson was awarded
this prize at the Canadian Historical Association's annual meeting
in May, held at Concordia University. The prize is awarded to
the best English-language academic article deemed to make an
original and scholarly contribution to the field of women's
and gender history. Dr.
Tillotson
won for her article, "The
Family as Tax Dodge: Partnership, Individuality, and Gender
in the Personal Income Tax Act, 1942 to 1970", which
was published in the Canadian Historical Review, 90:3 (2009):
391-425. Her article was described by the awards jury as making
'a major contribution to our understanding of the welfare state,
the family economy, feminist theory and political history.'
The CHR was launched in 1920 as a continuation of the Review
of Historical Publications Relating to Canada, whose first
volume appeared in 1897 and covered books published in 1896 and
1895. One of the earliest essays in the Review is a scathing reading
of William Kingsford's The History of Canada, Volume VIII, documenting
the fact that careless scholarship existed even in those days.
Early CHR articles are equally interesting, with titles such as
"The Growth of Canadian National Feeling" (W.S. Wallace)
and "A Plea for a Canadian National Library" (Lawrence
J. Burpee). We have the national library; do we have Canadian
national feeling?

Among
the western nations that have played a substantive role in the
making of twentieth-century history, Canada enjoys the questionable
distinction of being perhaps the least known. Yet there are
good reasons for everyone - Canadians included - to know more
about Canada's history. Good reasons that are apparent to regular
readers of the Canadian Historical Review.
The CHR offers an analysis of the ideas, people, and events
that have molded Canadian society and institutions into their
present state. Canada's past is examined from a vast and multicultural
perspective to provide a thorough assessment of all influences.
As a source for authoritative scholarship, giving the sort of
in-depth background necessary for understanding the course of
daily events - both for Canadians themselves and for others
with an interest in the nation's affairs - the CHR is without
rival.
The Canadian Historical Review provides comprehensive reviews
of books to interest all levels of Canadian historians. Each
issue also offers an extensive bibliography of recently published
historical writings (including CD and video media) in all areas
of Canadian history, conveniently arranged by subject.
The CHR is published with the support of the Social
Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC)
and the Department of Canadian Heritage through the Publications
Assistance Program (PAP) and the Canadian Magazine Fund.
We acknowledge the financial support of the Government of Canada
