Summary: "The New Democracy: A Handbook for Democratic Speakers and Workers" by Walter Vrooman is a political manual written in the late 19th century. The book focuses on the organization of grassroots efforts and effective communication strategies aimed at rallying support for Democratic principles, especially in the run-up to the critical 1900 elections. Through detailed advice and methods, Vrooman emphasizes the importance of engaging local constituencies through speeches and meetings, particularly targeting young, energetic workers. The opening of the handbook establishes the context of its creation shortly after the 1896 national campaign, where Vrooman outlines the necessity for a dedicated bureau of speakers to uphold and promote true Democratic values against prevailing corrupt practices. He discusses the formation and goals of the National Volunteers of Democracy, emphasizing a mobilization effort among ordinary citizens to reclaim their political agency. Highlighting the ongoing struggle against the "money power," he calls for vigilance and grassroots activism, setting the tone for practical, actionable steps that the Volunteers are expected to follow in engaging their communities effectively.
