La Gazette Royale d'Hayti
(Gazette Officielle de l'Etat d'Hayti)
Explore Haiti’s Early Print Culture
The division of early nineteenth-century Haiti into two separately governed states led to the creation of competing printing presses under Henry Christophe in the north and Alexandre Pétion in the south and southwest. Visit the site to journey through the northern government of Haiti’s official newspapers and explore its yearly almanacs. Remnants of a robust culture of print, these rare documents, collected from archives and libraries across Europe, the Caribbean, and North America, are presented together and in full text for the first time.
