Excerpt from The Haitian Revolution 1791 to 1804: Or Side Lights on the French Revolution The sacred fire of liberty which broke out in their souls might be said to have enwrapped the whole island, giving inspiration to their leaders to dare and to do what seemed impossible, to wit: to defeat veteran armies of the two foremost nations on earth, England and France. The Haiti they created is domiciled on a most beautiful island; the author has visited it; some of his ancestors sleep there, buried in her soil.

In this ambitious book, Girard employs the latest tools of the historian's craft, multi-archival research in particular, and applies them to the climactic yet poorly understood last years of the Haitian Revolution. Haiti lost most of its archives to neglect and theft, but a substantial number of documents survive in French, U.S., British, and Spanish collections, both public and private. In all, this book relies on contemporary military, commercial, and administrative sources drawn from nineteen archives and research libraries on both sides of the Atlantic.
