For more than a hundred and fifty years, the great French Revolution of 1789, with its repercussions in France, Europe, and the entire world, has formed the keystone of modern history. The most important single contribu- tion ever made to our understanding of the French Revo- lution was written almost one hundred years ago by Alexis de Tocqueville, who stands forth today as the greatest political thinker of the nineteenth century. Tocqueville's astonishing book, Democracy in America, was only one part of the study of democracy to which he devoted his life, the second, and to his mind more important part, was to be a monumental study of the French Revolution, its origins, course, and consequences. Only the first sec- tion-THE OLD RÉGIME AND THE FRENCH REVOLUTION -was completed before his death: it brilliantly and searchingly examines the nature of French society in the years before the Revolution. Why did the Revolution break out? Was it inevitable, and if so, why? How was France really changed by the Revolution? Why did the intellectuals become enemies of the old French state and society? Why was the French nobility so estranged from the French people? Why, in short, were Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette doomed to the guillotines of the Rev- olution? In THE OLD REGIME AND THE FRENCH REVO- LUTION, Tocqueville examined these and many other questions, and in large measure definitively answered them.

This book has been unavailable for many years: for the Anchor edition, the text has been newly translated by Stuart Gilbert.
