Except if it be in the shadow of his worshipful student William Osler (1849–1919), the life of Reverend William Arthur Johnson (1816–1880), a 19th century English-Canadian clerical naturalist, teacher, and early mentor to ‘the Father of Modern Medicine’, has escaped special scrutiny over the years.
