Description:
Fold out map of Haiti. 2nd Edition. No Jacket.
This book, first published in 1929 in Great Britain, examines the history of Haiti and its long struggle for independence. The revolution against the French is treated in some detail, as is the story of the free Haitian republic that followed. Building a new country from slavery was no easy task, and another revolutionary period followed in the early twentieth century, which is also analysed alongside its aftermath.
