Although a central event in the history of the French in the New World, the full significance of the revolution has yet to be realized. These essays deepen our understanding of Haiti during the period from 1791 to 1815. They consider the colony's history and material culture; its \"free people of color\"; the events leading up to the revolution and its violent unfolding; the political and economic fallout from the revolution; and its cultural representations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDavid Patrick Geggus teaches history at the University of Florida, Gainesville.
