William Oscar "W. O." Saunders (1884–1940) was an American newspaper publisher, journalist, essayist, magazine contributor, satirist, critic of rural American life and culture.〔"The Independent Man", Keith Saunders, Edwards and Broughton ; () : Saunders Press, 1962〕 One of his most famous writings was "The Book of Ham".〔Powell, W.S. (editor) ('' Dictionary of North Carolina Biography'' Vol. 5, P-S ). Chapel Hill ; London : University of North Carolina Press, 1988.〕 ==Reputation==
Saunder's bravery and willingness to champion unpopular causes and opinions compared to many in the Southern States was admired by other writers and newspapers. H.L. Mencken wrote of Saunders "if the South had forty editors like Saunders, it could be rid of its problems in five years." 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=NC Historical Marker Website )〕 When Saunders wrote stridently in his editorials against lynching in the South, some Northern newspapers reprinted and commented on his material. One of the editors of The New York Age declared: "We wish again to express our admiration for Mr. Saunders. He lives in a Southern state and openly publishes his brave, strong words against the sins' of the people amongst whom he lives. If anybody doubts that this takes real courage, he knows nothing about the question."〔Johnson, J. Contributing Editor.(''The Wages of Sin.'' ) Thursday January 27. 1916.P.4.〕
