About this product
Product Information
A New Abridgement of a Classic on the American Experiment. ?As debates rage over the future of America and the country's relationship to its past, there is no better time to examine the American culture from the perspective of a nineteenth century French thinker and student of democracy. Alexis de Tocqueville's Democracy in America , written in French in the early 19th century, is seen as a classic of American political and cultural studies. However, the expansive 2--volume original has never seen an accessible version that remains true to the original text. This new abridgement of Francis Bowen's 1864 translation keeps Tocqueville's thought intact. All chapters have been retained and no sentences have been divided. This volume offers a clear window into American political history and a concise approach to this classic outsider's perspective on the United States. A new introduction by editor John D. Wilsey further interprets and applies Tocqueville's thought for the modern student of American institutions, politics, religion, and society.

Reviews
Tocqueville's Democracy in America is one of the most important books--indeed, perhaps the most important book--for understanding American politics and society. John D. Wilsey's abridgment succeeds in placing an accessible version of this magnum opus in the hands of students and general readers, while his introduction provides a clear guide for understanding the work. By sharing Tocqueville's ideas broadly, Wilsey has contributed to educating the American democracy. -- Jonathan Den Hartog , associate professor of history, University of Northwestern--St. Paul, St. Paul, Minnesota

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
