Excerpt from The Republic as a Form of Government, or the Evolution of Democracy in America In the summer of 1867, in allusion to the war of the American sections, then recently over, I observed to a London publisher, the head of one of the great houses, that all candid thinkers must agree now that the Republic does not afford a stable footing for constitutional government. Quickly, in response, he proposed that I should write a book for him to prove what I had said to be true, but stipulated that the work should be completed by the end of two years. I told him I would think of it, and mentioned the publisher's proposition to a cultivated and intelligent English gentleman residing in London, one of the literati of that famous capital, to whom I had carried a letter of introduction, and who, when in America, had seen "The Lost Principle," then a new book. But he replied, "The time is too short; take four years, and the book will fructify when you are in the grave." The subject dropped from my mind, but, after my return to my home in Fauquier county, it came back to me and dwelt with me, and this volume has been the result,after the impediments and delays of official engagements.
