Alexis de Tocqueville's Democracy in America was published between 1835 and 1840 and is viewed as one of the most extensive and intuitive books ever written in the United States. Seeing the failed trials of a democratic government in his native France, Tocqueville decided to study a balanced and prosperous democracy to get to know every detail of how it worked. Democracy in America is the result of all his studies. The book was and still is famous because it manages issues that include religion, the press, class structure, money, racism, the role of government, and the judicial system, all of which are just as relevant today as they were during those days. Various colleges in the U.S. have begun to use Democracy in America in political science and history courses.

This is a must-read for anyone who wishes to understand the mentality of liberty that exists in America. Tocqueville does an excellent job of illustrating the good and bad of "democracy in America." Essential for any amateur or professional political scientist.

Tocqueville: Still relevant, still worth your time
Tocqueville certainly has an interesting story to tell. A young man in his twenties when he wrote the first volume, he was a great intellectual of his time. It is interesting how a book 150 years old can still hold so many truths for the United States and the concept of fledgling democracies-- and still be such an enjoyable read! Don't be daunted by the page count, this enjoyable and informative text flies by, and you'll enjoy every minute of it.
