About the author
Rev. W. Ed. Snyder is credited as the author of The Experiences of Uncle Jack: Being a Biography of Rev. Andrew Jackson Newgent. The book was published by the Otterbein Press and presents Newgent's story in a way that blends biography, faith, and personal memory.
From the surviving edition, Snyder is identified as a minister in the United Brethren Church. Beyond that, easily confirmed biographical details about his life are scarce, so the clearest picture of him comes through his writing: pastoral, attentive to character, and interested in preserving the life of a fellow minister for future readers.
