Recovering a defining moment in the Age of Revolutions.

Trade Review

"The Cry of Vertières makes a major and much welcomed contribution to the expanding field of Haitian revolutionary studies. By focusing on the centrality of the decisive Battle of Vertières, both in the historical record and from the perspective of collective memory 'from below' in Haiti's war of national liberation, it reconstructs -- in a more meaningful way than any strict military account -- the definitive turning point in Haiti's transition from a French colony at the brink of being re-enslaved to an independent country governed by former slaves." Carolyn Fick, Concordia University and author of The Making of Haiti: The Saint Domingue Revolution from Below
