Title: Epic tale of the birth of Haiti.
Review: I read this book because of "Ten Indians" and because I am a history buff. It is nothing like "Ten Indians", except that many scenes are described from the differing viewpoints of several characters. This is a fine historical novel. I learned a lot of new and interesting facts about Haiti's history and people. It was a little slow going at first because of the necessity to look up French words and phrases (in the dictionary provided). If you read French, I think you can get more out of the book. Also, it would have been nice to have a map for orientation as to where events occurred. Overall, a good book and worth the time. I recommend it
