Sample Book Insights:
#1 Tocqueville’s childhood was dominated by figures from the highest military and administrative nobility of the Ancien Régime, survivors of the Revolutionary Terror, and loyal to the exiled Bourbons. He developed a habit of casting doubt on much of what he did and saw.
#2 Tocqueville had a happy childhood at Verneuil. His parents created an atmosphere of conviviality, and there was frequent entertainment. He was taught the importance of service to God and nation.
#3 The return of the Bourbons and the Restoration of the king in 1814 made supporting the country much easier. The Tocquevilles rejoined demonstrations calling for the restoration of Louis XVIII, Louis XVI’s brother, to the throne of France.
#4 After the Bourbons were restored, those who had remained loyal to the crown regrouped and sought to recover prominent positions and prerogatives. The Tocqueville-Rosanbos family did well, as they were loyal heirs of the great Malesherbes, who had defended Louis XVI at his trial.
