Description: "In this book, Hans Schmidt deals with United States military, economic, and diplomatic relations with the Republic of Haiti during the period in which the Marines occupied that country. From 1915 to 1934, Americans served as officials of the Haitian government and controlled its finances, its public works, its police force, and its sanitation. Drawing upon voluminous archival and manuscript materials unavailable until recently, Professor Schmidt examines the many complicated elements of the intervention and occupation"--Jacket.
