A definition of an isometric shift operator on a Banach space is given which extends the usual definition of a shift operator on a separable Hilbert space. It is shown that there is no such shift on many of the common Banach spaces of continuous functions. The associated ideas of a semi-shift and a backward shift are also introduced and studied in the case of continuous function spaces.
