Examines the legacy of Saint-Domingue refugees who settled in Louisiana between 1791 and 1815. This study of the Saint-Domingue influence finds that the new arrivals established New Orleans' first newspapers and many of its oldest schools and left their cultural influence on the city's music and architecture.
