Description
Unique to this edition is a translation of Tocqueville’s other American writings- Two Weeks in the Wilderness and The Excursion to Lake Oneida . In 1831 Tocqueville set out from post-revolutionary France on a journey across America that would take him 9 months and cover 7,000 miles. The result was DEMOCRACY IN AMERICA- a subtle and prescient analysis of the life and institutions of 19th-century America. Tocqueville’s study of the strengths and weaknesses of an evolving democratic society has been quoted by every American president since Eisenhower. It remains a key point of reference for any discussion of the American nation or the democratic system. —- ISBN: 9780140447606
