Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:
#1 The country of Haiti was a black republic that existed in the New World. It was a pariah among the slaveholding societies of the New World, and its past continued to perplex governments with Caribbean interests.
#2 The Haitian Revolution, sparked by a slave revolt in 1791, fueled by the burning of the city of Cap François on June 20, 1793, and stoked by the egalitarian rhetoric of the French Revolution, turned on its head this ordered and hierarchical world.
#3 The Haitian Revolution was a huge inspiration for African Americans, who saw it as a warning of the dangers of emancipation. For many white Americans, however, the example demonstrated the dangers of emancipation and the need for isolation to avoid a bloodbath.
#4 The city of Port-au-Prince had a population of about 35,000 people in 1828, and it had deteriorated as a result of the Haitian Revolution, which had overthrown European rule and ended slavery. However, some foreigners, like Charles Mackenzie, thought the city was quite sickening.
