In 1899, this British author was the first white man to cross the interior of the black island republic since 1803. This incredible book describes in excruciating, horrifying, and sometimes amusing detail how, after nearly 100 years of independence, the black rulers of Haiti had turned this once-prosperous white-ruled colony into an unimaginable hell. The last chapter of the book is called "Can the Negro Rule Himself?"

This is a hand-edited edition which contains none of the OCR errors which mar other versions.
