The White Manual is a white supremacist handbook similar to The Anarchist Cookbook. It promotes the founding of small independent white supremacist cells, and is an instructional manual on illegal activities such as weapon-making and terrorism, in addition to violent guerrilla warfare against the Government. The book was popular on neo-Nazi websites until it attracted media and law enforcement attention, causing many sites to take it down. Anarchist activist Sherman Austin said of the book:
There’s something on the Internet called the White Resistance Manual. It’s pretty much for white supremacists…to carry out a large-scale guerilla campaign through means of assassination, threats, obtaining funds through fraud, everything from firearms to explosives. I’ve seen, not surprisingly, no action taken against those people, but here I am, an anarchist website, not even close to what that is, not even close to what else you can find on the Internet.
