Hans Schmidt and the US Occupation


Hans Schmidt, author of perhaps the best work on the first US Occupation of Haiti in English, discusses the Occupation. Schmidt's  The United States Occupation of Haiti, 1915-1934 is mandatory reading, although one can see the appeal of Renda's Taking Haiti and other works which explore US-Haiti relations from a variety of perspectives. Roger Gaillard's work, however, remains the best for understanding the US Occupation.
