The complete back file of the Canadian Historical Review is now available online. 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? Access the full CHR Online Archive.

The price of the archive is $6,500, which includes 2009 online access. In order to maintain perpetual access to the archive, a $50 maintenance fee is charged annually. If your institution maintains a current print or online subscription, this maintenance fee is waived.

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.
