Cap-Français

Cap-Français designates books centered on the city historically known as Cap‑Français (today Cap‑Haïtien) and the northern region of Saint‑Domingue, the heart of France’s Caribbean colony before and during the Haitian Revolution. This category typically spans the 17th to early 19th centuries and includes histories of plantation slavery and resistance, studies of free people of color, commerce and maritime networks, and urban life in the port once dubbed the “Paris of the Antilles.” It encompasses primary sources (maps, travel narratives, memoirs), scholarly works, and historical fiction set in or about the city, along with titles on architecture, post‑revolution transformations, and the refugee diaspora to Cuba, Louisiana, and beyond—situating Cap‑Français within the broader French Atlantic world.
