- This is the first book-length, definitive study of Anglo-Haitian relations in the Victorian period. It is the result of analysing thousands of otherwise neglected sources in the form of newspaper articles, letters, travel narratives, lithographs, anthropological papers, proclamations, pamphlets, business ledgers, parliamentary speeches, posters, and Victorian histories, located in archives across the Caribbean, the United States, France, and Britain. The originality and extensive scope of this research means that the analysis provides numerous and crucial insights into the cultural, diplomatic and political exchanges between representatives of the world’s most radically anti-racist state, and what was the most powerful imperial project.
