A vivid, unflinching portrait of a nation reborn discover Hayti; Or, The Black Republic, now restored for a new generation. Part travelogue, part political study, Sir Spenser St. John s 19th-century account takes readers deep into Haiti s tumultuous streets, courts, and countryside.

Historically significant and sometimes controversial, this work is essential for readers of Haiti history, Caribbean history, and post-colonial studies.
