==========================================
PEOPLE TO PEOPLE, is trying to build a library of books on Haiti. While
we are interested in nearly every book about Haiti, the Voodoo religion,
West Indian piracy and many that treat of the Caribbean generally, the
list below are works that we are especially desirous of finding. If you
have any of the following for sale we would like to hear from you. Also,
if you have other books you think we might be interested in, please write
or call. Thank you.
=================================================
