A Long View of Canadian History was a Canadian historical television miniseries which aired on CBC Television in 1959.
Premise
[edit]The series concerns Canadian history and consists of a discussion between historian Donald Creighton and political scientist Paul Fox, both professors at the University of Toronto. Two hours of film were recorded from their five-and-a-half-hour conversation, which in turn was edited to fit two half-hour episodes which aired at 10:30 p.m. (Eastern) on 16 and 30 June 1959.[1]
CBC's Publication Branch published the text of this conversation in book form that year.[2]
