Haiti and the United States are two vastly different places—and this fact compelled Kathleen Tobin to write Brush with Haiti, the marvelously true story of the beautiful, impoverished-yet-hopeful country of Haiti and a woman with her heart in more than one world.

Brush with Haiti is an introduction to the fascinating country of Haiti. Its compelling prose offers an academic’s perspective on both Haiti and the American world of academia. Brush with Haiti combines personal anecdotes with history and modern affairs to make for a truly captivating read about a country that knows how to persevere.

Both books are available in both print and ebook format.
