Frederick Wood (historian)
Frederick Lloyd Whitfeld "Freddie" Wood (29 September 1903 – 11 September 1989) was a notable New Zealand historian and university professor.
==Biography==
Wood was born in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia in 1903. His father was George Arnold Wood, who taught history at the University of Sydney. Wood Jr. received his education at Sydney Grammar School, Sydney University, and Balliol College, Oxford. When he returned to Sydney, he privately tutored the later Nobel-laureate Patrick White.
On 23 January 1932, he married the teacher Joan Myrtle Walter at Blackheath, New South Wales. In 1935, a committee of the Victoria University College had recommended John Cawte Beaglehole as chair of their history department, but this was blocked for political reasons. The position was offered to Wood instead.〔 Wood spent the rest of his academic career at Victoria University, and retired from teaching in 1969.〔 He was appointed a Commander of the Most Distinguished Order of Saint Michael and Saint George in the 1974 New Year Honours. He died at his home on 11 September 1989.〔
