Written in 1938, this historical account has become a reference for most books to follow. It is well-written, flows fairly seemlessly and is therefore hard to put down. It provides a concise and cohesive sudy of the bloody struggle for freedom in St Domingue. I would definitely recommend following it with the trilogy written by Madison Smart Bell, beginning with "All Souls Rising" which will bring this tumultuous history to life. "The Black Jacobins" forms the foundation of my Haitian library.
