Maroon Nation: A History of Revolutionary Haiti

by Johnhenry Gonzalez

This deeply researched and original volume weaves a history of early independent Haiti focused on crop production, land reform, and unauthorized rural settlements. Utilizing new primary documents, the author argues that Haiti's legacy of runaway communities and land conflict was as formative as the Haitian Revolution in developing the country's characteristic agrarian, mercantile, and religious institutions.
