The complete edition based on the revised and corrected text of the 1961 French edition

Originally penned in the mid-eighteenth century by Frenchman Alexis de Tocqueville, Democracy in America remains the most penetrating and astute picture of American life, politics, and morals ever written, as relevant today as when it first appeared in print nearly two hundred years ago. This edition, meticulously edited by the distinguished de Tocqueville scholar J. P. Mayer, is widely recognized as the preeminent translation.

Review:
"No better study of a nation's institutions and culture than Tocqueville's "Democracy in America" has ever been written by a foreign observer." -"The New York Times" "The Bradley edition of Tocqueville's classic is the best now available in English." -Charles A. Beard "Professor Bradley's edition should remain the standard one for our time." -F. O. Matthiessen With an Introduction by Alan Ryan
About the Author:

Alexis de Tocqueville (1805-1859) was born in Verneuil, France. A historian and political scientist, he came to the United States in 1831 to report on the prison system. His experiences would later become the basis for his classic study Democracy in America.
