Tocqueville, Bossuet

Since my last post,I read an issue of Electic Reading, an issue of The New Yorker, an issue of Vanity Fair, and an issue of The New Scientist. I'm in the middle of an issue of The Economist. I also read My Memories of Six Reigns, by HH Princess Louise, which was bland in the extreme, the rest of Bossuet, sermons, panegyrics, and essays, and then the first part of Tocqueville's book on the US. There was nothing striking in any of this that I want to share.
