| This abridged story of
Toussaint L'Overture provides a keen insight into the character of the man
who liberated Saint Domingue (also known as Santo Domingo) which
eventually became Haiti.
L'Overture's youth and the foundation he received from his father, along with a tragic event young L'Overture witnessed, are seen as being formative factors in how it was practically inevitable that L'Overture would be the type of historical figure he became. |
