| Summary | "Haiti: Its Dawn of Progress After Years in a Night of Revolution" by J. Dryden Kuser is a historical account likely written in the early 20th century, specifically in the 1920s. The book offers an exploration of Haiti's transition from a state of turmoil following years of revolution to a new phase characterized by recovery and potential progress. It examines the complex socio-political dynamics between the Haitian government and American intervention, focusing on the implications of such relationships for the country's future. In this detailed narrative, Kuser paints a vivid picture of Haiti's landscape, culture, and the challenges faced by its people during a pivotal time in their history. The book addresses various aspects of Haitian life, including the traditional practices like Vaudoux, the consequences of colonial history, and the evolution of public services under American oversight. Kuser discusses the role of prominent leaders, such as President Dartiguenave, and the interactions between American forces and local populations. Through numerous anecdotes and observations, he expresses optimism about Haiti's untapped potential, portraying a country rich in resources and resilience, eager to forge its own path towards stability and prosperity.
