Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The French Revolution, in San Domingo
The world-wide struggle between the primary races of mankind the con?ict of color, as it has been hap pily termed bids fair to be the fundamental problem of the twentieth century, and great communities like the United States of America, the South African Confedera tion, and Australasia regard the color question as perhaps the gravest problem of the future. To our age, therefore, the French Revolution in San Domingo the first great shock between the ideals of white supremacy and race equality, which erased the finest of European colonies from the map of the white world and initiated that most noted attempt at negro self-government, the black republic of Haiti cannot but be of peculiar interest.
