ABSTRACT
This article explains how the author discovered his interest in accounting history, and how he used his research and readings in history to enliven his more than 50 years of teaching introductory financial accounting to undergraduates. He then presents nine illustrations of how he has brought historical background and a critical mien into his lectures and discussion sessions with students, in the hope that colleagues elsewhere might consider doing likewise.
