Why has Haiti been plagued by so many woes? Why have multiple U.S. efforts to create a stable democracy in Haiti failed so spectacularly? Philippe Girard answers these and other questions, examining how colonialism and slavery have left a legacy of racial tension, both within Haiti and internationally; Haitians remain deeply suspicious of white foriegners' motives, many of whom doubt Hatians' ability to govern themselves. He also examines how Haiti's current political instability is merely a continuation of political strife that began during the War of Independence (1791-1804). Finally, Haiti: The Tumultuous History, Girard explores poverty's devastating impact on contemporary Haiti and argues that Haitians--particularly home-grown dictators--bear a big share of the responsibility for their nation's troubles.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Cuba the Pearl of the Antilles Undoubtedly the reader is familiar with the fact that there ewists a surprisingly large number of books on the subject of foreign trade which devote three fourths of their space to use less generalities and the giving of advice on the subject, of such a character as the business man, who uses sound judgment, does not need, and which, for anyone not gifted with common sense, is useless. Time and again the author has seen books on the subject, of 500 to 800 pages, which give no more of basic, fundamental, necessary information than could have been rendered in one third of the same space. Realizing the importance of saving to the business man time and brain power by not wasting his time and energy by a lot of useless data and generalities, the author has prepared the present volume an Cuba its trade and how to cater to and se cure it, with the aim. In view not of how much (useless) infor mation the book furnishes, but rather, how much (useless) in formation is cut out. It is unnecessary to dwell upon the impor tance of Cuban trade, and upon the many factors favoring the conquest of that trade by the United States. These facts are too well known to the progressive business man to be worthy of repetition. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
