- Summary
- Originally published in 1859. New edition of 19th century chronicle of voyage by Paul Dhormoys (1829-1889) to the former kingdom of Haitian Emperor Faustin Soulouque. Faustin Soulouque (1782-1867) was a general in the Haitian Army when he was elected President of Haiti in 1847. In 1849 he was proclaimed Emperor of Haiti under the name Faustin I. He soon purged the army of the ruling elite, installed black-skinned loyalists in administrative positions, and created a secret police and a personal army creating a black nobility in the country. However, his unsuccessful attempts to reconquer the neighboring Dominican Republic undermined his control and he was forced to abdicate in 1859. Other works by Paul Dhormoys include Une vengeance de Faustin (1859), Sous les tropiques (1864), La comédie politique: souvenirs d'un comparse (1886).
