At the time, the French under Napoleon and the Spanish under King Ferdinand divided the island. An unprecedented battle of wills took place between the black Man in Haiti and Napoleon, flushed with the power of his conquests. Yet David won against Goliath. This very dynamic story line is made even more compelling by the clash between Catholicism and Voodoo; inspired warfare; the treachery of Toussaint's generals; the conflict between every shade of color on the island; international politics; and the eternal love triangle.
