Alexander William Sheppard MC (2 June 1913 – 11 June 1997) was an Australian soldier, bookseller, publisher and writer. Rising to the rank of Colonel during World War II, he won the Military Cross for his role in the Allied evacuation from Greece in 1941. As a post–1945 rehabilitation officer in Greece he denounced the atrocities of the Greek Civil War and became an "outspoken critic" of British policies and the Greek governments Britain supported. In the 1960s he fought against book censorship in Australia.
