Henry Wellington Wack (1875 – 18 December 1954)[1] was an American attorney and writer noted for being an apologist for Leopold II's regime of the Congo Free State.[2]
Wack was an attorney for a pharmaceutical company who became a paid advocate of the Congo Free State, who however endeavoured to ensure he appeared as an impartial observer.[3] Whereas King Leopold II had been able to impose tariffs on businesses operating in the Congo, Wack successfully advocated opening up business opportunities to such tycoons as J. P. Morgan, Thomas Fortune Ryan and John D. Rockefeller Jr. met with the King following from this.[4]
