Michael Deibert in Lonely Planet guide
Heading out to dinner in Paris tonight with my good friend, the writer Ben Fountain, it was nice to find out that my 2005 book, Notes from the Last Testament: The Struggle for Haiti, is mentioned on page 272 of the new Lonely Planet guide to Haiti and the Dominican Republic as "a gripping eye-witness account of the chaos of the final years of Aristide's rule up to the 2004 coup." Thanks for noticing, Lonely Planet.
