This book, first published in 1929, examines the history of Haiti and its long struggle for independence. The revolution against the French is treated in some detail, as is the story of the free Haitian republic that followed. Building a new country from slavery was no easy task, and another revolutionary period followed in the early twentieth century, which is also analysed alongside its aftermath.

Black Democracy: The Story of Haiti by H. P. Davis, while not yet possessing the shelf-life of The Art of War by Sun Tzu, or Lives by Plutarch, shines as a tome of significance about a time in western history that, sadly, has greater coverage by Hollywood than scholarly research.
While most books about this era seem to seize on a single person or group of events as the core of their treatise, Davis lays everything out for you, carefully separating the facts from his conclusions.
It is a testament to Mr. Davis that his book, after all these years, is still considered THE history book of early Haiti.
