Haiti: The First Black Republic tells the story of how a group of enslaved Africans came together to fight for their freedom and created the first independent Black nation in the Americas.

This illustrated picture book published by Haitian-American author Frantz Derenoncourt, Jr. engages young readers in a way that they could fully appreciate the accomplishments of their ancestors.
