In 1900, Hesketh Hesketh-Prichard, the cricketer, soldier, and travel-writer, visited the mysterious land of Hayti, the original African-American republic. This classic of the small genre of writing in English about the land of Haiti is controversial partly because Prichard's photographs and descriptions indicate the dramatic decline of Haiti today. In spite of many foreign occupations to restore a modicum of order and a multinational charitable effort of tens of billions, Haiti is inarguably far worse-run today in virtually every metric than when Prichard visited, and yet the Haitian elites have resources unimaginable in Prichard's day.
This edition has been reformatted and edited for publication by Forbidden Books, with original notes and a critical forward by Abdul Alhazred. It is not a facsimile reprint.
