I thought I would contribute my short bibliography on Protestantism in Haiti to those who are interested in further reading. These studies--and their bibliographies--will yield a great deal of information. My regards to everybody on the list--Liza McAlister

I came across two further citations pertaining to Protestantism and/or Voodoo that were not on Elizabeth Mcalister's recent post. If you read French, note the following:

La protestantisme Haitien (Haitian Protestantism) Catts Pressoir (P-au-P: Imprimerie de la Societe Biblique et des Livres Religieux d'Haiti, 1945, Vol 1; P-au-P, Imprimerie du Seminaire Adventiste, 1977, Vol 2) According to Frances Chambers (World Bibliographic Series, Vol 39: Haiti), wherein I saw this citation, this is the standard work on the history of the Protestant Churches in Haiti.

Of more interest to the recent discussion is an article discussing both Voodoo and Protestantism:

Vodou et Protestantisme Alfred Metraux. Revue de l'Histoire des Relgions, Vol 144, No 2 (Oct-Dec 1958), pp 198-216. Chambers comments: Discusses Voodoo and Protestantism in the Marbial Valley.
