Albert B. Corey Prize in Canadian-American Relations

The Albert B. Corey Prize, first awarded in 1967, is a biennial prize sponsored jointly by the American Historical Association and the Canadian Historical Association. The prize is awarded in even-numbered years for the best book on Canadian-American relations or on the history of both countries. Established in 1963 and formally ratified in 1966 after funding was secured, the prize honors Albert B. Corey (1898-1963), who first proposed the award to encourage the study of Canadian-US relations. The prize recognizes outstanding scholarship that contributes to understanding the historical relationship between Canada and the United States, including topics such as cross-border interactions, transnational movements, cultural exchanges, political relations, and the shared history of both nations.
