Learn about the first time in history that people of color
overthrew a European colonial regime to establish an independent
country Describing the only successful slave revolt in world
history, the newly revised Second Edition of A Concise History of
the Haitian Revolution delivers a nuanced and rigorous treatment of
the events of the Haitian Revolution of the late 18th century and
early 19th century. The book describes events from the slave
uprising in the French colony of Saint-Domingue in 1791 and the
emergence of its leader, Toussaint Louverture, to the declaration
of independence by Jean-Jacques Dessalines in 1804. The new edition
is updated to reflect the most recent scholarship in the field,
including original research conducted by author Jeremy D. Popkin.
It is a valuable resource for anyone studying independence
movements in the Americas, the history of the Atlantic world, the
history of the African diaspora, and the age of the American and
French revolutions. Readers will also benefit from the inclusion
of: The latest research on the subject of the Haitian Revolution,
including new discoveries by the author and other scholars Coverage
of the post-revolutionary period up to 1843, a period of intense
interest in recent scholarship A clear and accessible approach to
the subject that doesn't assume or require any previous knowledge
of this period in history Perfect for undergraduate students of
history taking courses like the History of the Atlantic World,
History of the Revolutionary Era, Latin American History to 1820,
and History of the African Diaspora, A Concise History of the
Haitian Revolution is also an ideal resource for high school
teachers seeking a challenging resource for AP World History
