ty

Very instructive book

Important primary sources: I loved it! This was one of the few books that I had to read in college that I did not sell back to the school store.

A little slow, but very interesting and sheds light on a revolution that rarely gets talked about in history classes today!

I had to read this for my world history class and it is interesting and helps describe one of the most important slave revolts of all time.

I wanted a book to refresh my memories of a few things about the island im from . There are alot good info in this book..

it can in a timely fashion, it matched the seller's description and was quite affordable and a good read for those interested parties

I could not be helped but be moved by the documents in this book. The author did an incredible job of helping the reader understand the importance of San Domingue and the other French colonies by including letters, articles and transcripts. This was so important to my research about the nation that would eventually become Haiti and other colonies that found themselves in similar circumstances. These accounts tell the real truth about life in the French colonies and the resolve of the inhabitants.
