Historia
William Lewis Morton, historian, was born in Gladstone, Manitoba on 13 December 1908. Having obtained his first degree at the University of Manitoba he pursued further studies as a Rhodes Scholar at St. John's College, Oxford, before returning to lecture in history at what was then known as St. John's College, Winnipeg, later to become part of the University of Manitoba. Professor Morton's association with Manitoba continued unbroken until 1966 when, having completed terms as Head of the Department of History and as Provost of the newly established University College, he left Manitoba to become Master of Champlain College at the University of Trent. In 1969 he was appointed Vanier Professor of Canadian History at Trent, retiring in 1975 to return to Manitoba. Professor Morton continued to teach, research and write at the University of Manitoba until his death in Medicine Hat, Alberta on 7 December 1980. He was the author of several books including The Progressive Party of Canada (1957) and Manitoba: A History (1957). He was also the recipient of several awards and honorary degrees.
