DEMOCRACY IN AMERICA. BY ALEXIS DE TOCQUEVILLE, MEMBER OF THE INSTITUTE OF FRANCE, AND OF THE CHAMBER ADVERTISEMENT. IN issuing this complete edition of M. DE TOCQUEVILLE'S Democracy in America, the Publisher avails. himself of the opportunity to state the advantages which the present possesses over previous editions of the work. Besides incorporating the additional notes and emendations contained in the recent Paris edition, it includes an original and copious analytical Index. The sale of six large impressions of the first portion of the work in this country, and a much larger circulation of it in England and France, sufficiently attest the high estimation with which it has been regarded. The entire work is now stereotyped, having been carefully collated, and passed under a thorough revision, with a view of rendering it as perfect as possible, and more befitting its character as the standard philosophical work on the genius of democracy, and for, what it is believed it will speedily become, a text-book of the schools, and a classic of the age. This edition is complete in one large volume, and reduced one-third in price. |
