About the Book
Papa Toussaint, a novel based on history, chronicles the efforts of the former slave, Toussaint Louverture, to create in Haïti a nation based on the equality of all races. The colonial countries work to inflame racial tensions on the island, and finally Napoléon sends an army to reestablish slavery. Papa Toussaint is based on the last five years in the life of Toussaint Louverture, the liberator of Haïti.
