Publisher's summary

The Haitian Revolution began in 1791 in the French colony of Saint Domingue, when a group of slaves rebelled in order to secure their freedom and the end of slavery. In the midst of the French Revolution, slaves took advantage of volatile political, racial, and social circumstances.

Inside you will hear about....

  • "The French Colony of Saint Domingue"
  • "Race and Class in Saint Domingue: The Coming of Revolution"
  • "The French Revolution in Saint Domingue"
  • "The Haitian Revolution Breaks Out"
  • "The Haitian Revolution and the World"
  • "Napoleon"
  • "The Continuing Struggle for Freedom"
  • And much more!

With legendary leaders like Toussaint Louverture, they eventually defeated Napoleon’s France to form the independent nation of Haiti. The Haitian Revolution had both global causes and consequences. In the end, the entire world was impacted by the heroic actions of the most dispossessed people in the population.

Good Summary of a Complicated Subject

I really liked this because they were able to cram a lot in about an hour. There are longer books about the Haitian Revolution and Haitian history. If you’re looking for details try those. If you want a quick overview of the Haitian revolution, this is great.

Keep in mind, this book is part of a series called “History in an Hour”. Be sure to manage your expectations before you buy.

Don't waste your money. Totally superficial!

This was a complete waste of time and money. Reads like a term paper by a mediocre student who has done no research and just spouts out events without knowing anything about the context etc.
