O knihe
Thomas Jefferson, author of the Declaration of Independence and third president of the United States, in many ways defines the meaning of the United States. His view of the Haitian Revolution as this nation's first secretary of state, and his administration's relations with the independent black government set up by Toussaint Louverture and his successors, as well as with its former Mother Country, France, which few scholars have seriously examined, is a significant barometer of his attitudes on slavery and race in practice, a topic of perennial interest and controversy among historians and the general public. More than any previous work, Arthur Scherr's in-depth study, Thomas Jefferson's Haitian Policy: Myths and Realities, attempts an accurate and informative discussion of an essential aspect of the political culture and diplomatic history of the Early Republic.
