Just finished this magnificent biography of this man and I am still thinking about what I have learnt. It has also started me to re think large portions of history and question the status quo.
There's an error in the book. Plate 10 misidentifies Dessalines and Pétion. It's Pétion who is on the left in the painting, and Dessalines on the right.

Just started reading the book this week. This is a fantastic overview and review.

Yes
It also gets a date wrong toward the end (says 1801 instead of 1802) which momentarily gave me pause for thought.
Vive La Haïti!
