Abstract

This essay was delivered as a plenary address at a conference for high school teachers on teaching history in Maine, held October 1997 at the University of Maine. Retiring History Professor Jerome Nadelhaft reflects on his career as colonial historian at the University of Maine and suggests that the mission of the history teacher is to impart an ethical sensibility to students.
