Johan Lindström Saxon (February 17, 1859 – November 7, 1935) was a Swedish journalist, publisher and vegetarianism activist.

Saxon was born in Gällersta Parish, Örebro, Sweden,[1] to Lars Johan Lindström and Kristina Lovisa Olsdotter.

[3] Kropotkin inspired Saxon's idea of "alternative agriculture", to breed out cattle and live off the produce of the earth.

Saxon's most successful book Umgängeskonst: Levnadskonst published in 1934 went through eight editions and sold over 70,000 copies.

[3] Saxon was the author of Sorgeliga saker hända which inspired the 1967 film Elvira Madigan.
