Is there a way to import issue history from Redmine using the CSV import? Thanks.

You can achieve this only using experimental JSON (beta) importer, here's a sample snippet with history changes:

{
	"users": [
		{
			"name": "pniewiadomski",
			"fullname": "Pawel Niewiadomski"
		},
		{
			"name": "wseliga",
			"fullname": "Wojtek Seliga"
		}
	],
	"projects": [
		{
			"name": "Sample data",
			"key": "SAM",
			"description": "This is a sample data",
			"versions": [ "1.0", "1.1"],
			"components": [ "Core", "HTTP", "UI"],
			"issues": [
				{
					"priority" : "Major",
					"description" : "Some nice description here\nMaybe _italics_ or *bold*?",
					"status" : "Closed",
					"reporter" : "pniewiadomski",
					"labels" : [ "impossible", "test" ],
					"watchers" : [ "wseliga" ],
					"issueType" : "Bug",
					"resolution" : "Resolved",
					"created" : "P-3D",
					"updated" : "P-1D",
					"affectedVersions" : [ "1.9" ],
					"summary" : "My chore",
					"assignee" : "wseliga",
					"fixedVersions" : [ "1.0" ],

					"history" : [
						{ "author" : "wseliga", "created": "P-1D", "items": [
							{
								"fieldType" : "jira",
								"field" : "status",
								"from" : "1",
								"fromString" : "Open",
								"to" : "5",
								"toString" : "Resolved"
							}
						  ]}
					]
				}
			]
		}
	]
}
