Versus History welcome you to the very first Podcast Episode from Senior School History Teachers Elliott L. Watson and Patrick O'Shaughnessy. In this introductory episode, the pair discuss the launch of www.versushistory.com and their forthcoming book, 'Versus Empire' - the first from the 'Versus' series, due for publication in 2018.
Elliott (@thelibrarian6) and Patrick (@historychappy) are both experienced History Teachers and are dedicated to delivering highly academic and articulate historical debate, with students of A-Level, I.B and U.S History courses as the target focus.
In episode one, both Teachers lay the platform for their debate on the historical significance of Lord Durham during his stint in the Canada's during the late 1830's. In the turbulent context of rebellion in both Upper and Lower Canada, did Lord Durham 'save' the white settler Empire for the Crown with his recommendations for 'responsible self-government'?
