The Standpatter: A Chronicle of Democracy is a historical novel written by Ella Hamilton Durley and published in 1912. The book is set in the early 20th century and follows the story of a young woman named Ruth Standish, who becomes involved in the political world of America during the Progressive Era. Ruth is a strong-willed and independent woman who is passionate about democracy and social justice. She becomes an active participant in the political scene and is eventually elected to Congress. However, she faces opposition from the old guard of the political establishment, who are resistant to change and progress. The novel explores themes of democracy, political corruption, and the struggle for equality. It also provides a vivid depiction of the political landscape of America during this time period, including the rise of the Progressive movement and the tensions between the old and new guard. Overall, The Standpatter is an engaging and insightful novel that provides a unique perspective on American politics during the early 20th century. It is a must-read for anyone interested in history, politics, and social justice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
