More of the travel books I gathered for the book club.
This is probably one of the best travel books/social commentaries ever written. A classic for a reason. The famed French Soldier travels through post-revolutionary America. He writes about the blossoming new form of government, the people, and the future as he sees it. He writes as a man in the center of the political life of America at the time- but still with the perspective of an outsider. A key piece of literature in understanding early American history.
