The author offers an overview of the last thirty years of historiography on the Haitian Revolution. It is organized under the following general headings: Colonial Society, the Seeds of Rebellion, the Insurrection of 1791–1793, Toussaint Louverture, and International Dimensions. During these thirty years, C. L. R. James's The Black Jacobins, first published in 1938, has remained the leading general interpretation of the revolution, even as specialized articles and books have appeared. Three general histories, however, have made their mark: Thomas Ott's The Haitian Revolution, Pierre Pluchon's biographies of Toussaint Louverture, and Carolyn Fick's The Making of Haiti.
