Footnotes
Edward Everett (1794-1865, politician, Governor of Massachusetts) was editor of the North American Review as well as author of the first review published in America of Democracy. Of the Ancien régime, Mayer comments, "the work was a great achievement and its reception was not less enthusiastic than that accorded twenty years earlier to the book on America.." (Alexis de Tocqueville, 1960, p.75). The Beinecke library has a similar, but smaller, collection of reviews of Democratie, though they are clipped from the periodicals (see Brogan p.662, fn 5).
