William Henry Oliphant Smeaton (1856-1914), perhaps better known by his pen name Oliphant Smeaton, was a Scottish writer, journalist, editor, historian and educator. He was popularly known for his writing on Australian life and literature for various British publications, his "Famous Scots Series", and for his adventure and children's fiction novels published during the 1890s.
