The Fight for History

The Fight for History explores how Canada has remembered, reinterpreted, and debated its experiences in World War II over the past seventy-five years. The book examines shifts in national perception—from viewing the war as a source of pride to highlighting defeats and tragedies—and the efforts to present a more balanced view of Canada's significant contributions. It reveals the complex cultural and political battles surrounding the country's wartime legacy and how these narratives have evolved over time.
