Quince días en las soledades americanas

This look at Alexis de Tocqueville's 1831 travels to the United States with his friend and colleague Gustave de Beaumont gives us a glimpse into the colonization of the United States. Weaving together the story of early American society with the inevitable destruction of both its natural landscapes and the natives that inhabited them, this text deals with contemporary themes of human concern for nature's fragility and the capacity to transform surroundings.
