      "American Journey", has a link to the dates of Tocqueville's trip to the States. Some of the dates are hyperlinked to his actual journal entries. Very simple and student friendly.

      "All About Alexis de Tocqueville" has quick facts and a timeline. Very simple for a superficial report or introductory/cursory outline.

      "Democracy in America" has very very very basic quotes from this text. I'm not sure that it would be useful for anything academic.

      "Democracy in America Teaching Modules" links to C-SPANs Tocqueville lesson plans which are really just lesson plan ideas that we could develop as teachers. There are some good quotes in some of them but mostly they seem to just tell us what other (primary) sources to read.

      "Journal Entries From Tocqueville's Trip" has a hyperlinked map that you can click on to see his journal entries in any specific state. This might be great if you were having different student groups talk about different areas during the antebellum period. Just a resource.

    C-SPAN's Tocquville page (as promised). Passages from "Democracy in America," a map of the route he traveled, references to his work, lesson plans and more!!

      These lessons are very detailed and flexible. Can be used for a single class period or over several periods. Helpful explanation of historical and visual culture background of images used. Links to high quality additional resources.
