Historians consider the Haitian Revolution the most successful slave revolt in all of history. Though many fought in the rebellion, one man ensured their victory: Toussaint Louverture. With his political savvy and leadership skills, this former slave helped the inhabitants of what was then called Saint Domingue to challenge their French oppressors. This book discusses what little historians know of this complicated historical leader who switched loyalties almost with the changing of the seasons. Learn about the life of this man who died in prison while his colony was just shy of the independence they could not have achieved without him.
