Five decades ago, Gold traveled to Haiti on a Caribbean version of the Fulbright Scholarship. The journey proved to be a turning point in his life. Fifty years later, his attachment to the tiny Caribbean nation-his second home-remains as passionate and powerful as ever. Now, in Haiti: Best Nightmare on Earth, he explores the secret life of this vibrant, volatile, violent land.
