Anonymous manuscript which contains a personal narrative of a former French soldier; includes an eye witness account of the colony of Saint-Domingue, its society and main agricultural products up until the very end of French rule. The matter of the revolution (1791-1804) is described only as far as 1797 and the deportation of Sonthonax, although the writer does include an appreciation of Toussaint Louverture. Part 1 (p. [1]-193) covers the author's early life in Paris when he enlists in the regiment for Cap-Français in 1785, gives a narration of his family in Paris, and notes that he deserted from the regiment in the Summer of 1786. The author also notes that he spent twelve years as a coffee planter and he writes a great deal about sugar, coffee, cotton, cocao, and indigo manufactures. Part 2 (p. [2-3], [1]-76, 2nd and 3rd counts) covers the revolution in Saint-Domingue up until 1797
