I don’t think Dad History is the same as popular history, but the former may be a subset of the latter. Many of the redditors who commented on the Dad History post seem to think academic historians are jealous of popular historians, and of course that is true at some superficial level. But in my experience, academic historians are not bothered by popular history and in fact are glad to see it thrive. In all my years in academia, I don’t think I’ve ever heard a history professor complain about popular history (although from time to time I like to joke about “the team of researchers that is David McCullough.”) So I think there is quite an illusion that academics are jealous of successful outsiders. It’s part of the myth that academics are stodgy and boring and afraid of new, different things, and that we are eternally gatekeeping and worried about losing our ground to amateurs. In reality, we are quite busy looking for the new and interesting, but it’s not that easy to turn new discoveries into popular books, for the simple fact that only so many books can be or will be successful on the market.

I’ve been asked a few times when I will publish a popular history book. I usually respond by saying that if everyone who asked me that would just buy my last book, it would be a popular history book. Well, for every successfull popular history book, there are probably a thousand books that mimic the style but find no success, no popularity whatsoever. An academic book, tending to be more narrow, aims to contribute something small to the bigger picture. A popular history book, generally written with wide parameters, is seldom directed towards introducing new knowledge but instead presents what academic historians already know albeit in more readable form. The number of successful popular historians is quite small and the path to success seems more difficult than simply finding an academic job that pays the bills while one can produce academic history articles and books on the side.
