Reviews
John Sutton Lutz, author of Makúk: A New History of Aboriginal-White Relations:
This highly readable book has reshaped the way I think about BC history. Reimer follows five generations of BC historians as they tried to make the province “home” by creating a past that celebrated and justified a “White Man’s Province” dominated by an Anglo elite ... Historians, as Reimer eloquently shows, played an essential role in the colonization of British Columbia and the maintenance of minority rule by a capitalist, Anglo, male elite through the late 20th century. This book is essential for anyone interested in the creation of a past for British Columbia.
