DEMOCRACY IN AMERICA
By Alexis de Tocqueville
Hardcover – Full calf leather - Vol. I – 1841, Vol. II – 1840 – Publisher: J. & H. G. Langley, 57 Chatham Street, New York. Fourth Edition, revised and corrected from the Eighth Paris Edition. Democracy in America by Alexis De Tocqueville, Member of the institute of France, and of the Chamber of Deputies, Translated by Henry Reeve, Esq. with an original preface and notes by John C. Spencer. Both volumes are in Near Fine condition. Exterior: These two volumes have been professionally bound in full Chieftain calf leather, hand died to achieve the appropriate "aged presentation". The two volumes have hollow back spines with five raised bands, gilt titling on the spine and decorative blind tooling. The decorative endpapers are hand marbled from Il Papiro in Venice, Italy. Interior: Spine and binding are tight, pages are somewhat age toned (to be expected for age) with foxing mostly around the margins. Original color map is in perfect condition in Volume I. An early American edition of one of the towering works of the Nineteenth Century in excellent condition and beautiful binding. A classic work on American society, which Printing and the Mind of Man describes as "One of the most important texts on political literature." Tocqueville was sent to America by the French government to study the prison system. During his nine-month stay, he used his official business as a pretext to study American society, and wrote his classic text upon his return to France. A definitive look on America from an outsider's nuanced prospective. These two beautiful volumes will make an exceptional addition to your personal library.
