{"product_id":"democracy-in-america-alexis-de-tocqueville-9780895261601","title":"Democracy in America","description":"Classic analysis of America's unique political character, quoted heavily by politicians and perennially popping up on history professors' reading lists. The book's enduring appeal lies in the eloquent, prophetic voice of Alexis de Tocqueville (1805-1859), a French aristocrat who visited the United States in 1831. A thoughtful young man in a still-young country, he succeeded in penning this penetrating study of America's people, culture, history, geography, politics, legal system, and economy. Tocqueville asserts, I confess that in America I saw more than America; I sought the image of democracy itself, with its inclinations, its character, its prejudices, and its passions, in order to learn what we have to fear or hope from its progress.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alexis de Tocqueville\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 089526160X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780895261601\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Gateway Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 703\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.24h x 6.28w x 1.88d","brand":"Alexis de Tocqueville","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44890605617407,"sku":"9780895261601","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d2da3c94-e294-4599-ba95-ee1ff11c4c8d.jpg?v=1709739507","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/democracy-in-america-alexis-de-tocqueville-9780895261601","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
