Often described as the most perceptive and influential book about American politics and society. A young aristocratic French lawyer, Alexis de Tocqueville wrote the book following his visit to the United States in 1831-32 and after extensive reading on his return to France. The book was originally published in two volumes (1835 and 1840).
