Brilliantly written and vividly illustrated with vignettes and portraits, 'Democracy in America' is far more than a trenchant analysis of one society at a particular point in time. What will most intrigue modern readers is how many of Tocqueville's observations still hold true - on the mixed advantages of a free press, the strained relations among the races, and the threats posed to democracies by consumerism and corruption.
