PRAISE FOR TOUSSAINT LOUVERTURE: A compelling look at an extraordinary historical figure. --Library Journal A groundbreaking biography that underscores the difficulties of leading slaves to freedom and avoiding violent extremes. --Kirkus Reviews At long last, the definitive biography of this complicated, mercurial revolutionary. Grounded in an impressive array of archival sources, Girard's remarkable portrait of Louverture is a delight to read. Fascinating and persuasive. --Douglas R. Egerton, author of Death or Liberty: African Americans and Revolutionary America Whereas most Louverture biographers have adopted extreme interpretations, Philippe Girard provides a balanced portrait, sympathetic but unsentimental. It draws astutely on the wealth of recent Haitian Revolution research, to which he has significantly contributed, and is set in a fluently written, highly accessible narrative. --David Geggus, Professor, University of Florida, and author of Haitian Revolutionary Studies
