Librivox recording of Democracy in America Volume I by Alexis de Tocqueville.
Read by LibriVox Volunteers.
When Tocqueville visited America in the 1830s he found a thriving democracy of a kind he had not seen anywhere else. Many of his insightful observations American society and political system, found in the two volume book he published after his visit, still remain surprisingly relevant today.

Subject: Democracy in America
I've found that there in information in this that,as a U S Citizen, took for granted.
I now will be able to wriye a book that is completely correct. It will be fiction and truth involved. This information will direct me in the proper direction in doing so.
I feel that all american should be aware of all of these truths in order to experience their complete U S Citizenship.
