Fellow Friends of Haiti,

I would like to notify you of the forthcoming publication of a new book
on street children and violence in Haiti.

The University Press of Florida is set to publish my first book,
*/Sleeping Rough in Port-au-Prince: An Ethnography of Street Children
and Violence in Haiti/*, in November 2006. The book is based on over ten
years (1994-2005) of anthropological fieldwork in Haiti.

I invite you to read more about the book on the publisher's website
(http://www.upf.com/authorbooks.asp?lname=KOVATS-BERNAT&fname=J.)

If you order the book before 12/30/2006, you will receive a 35% discount
on the list price.

You can find out more about my work in Haiti at my university website:

Thank you all!
Solidarity,
Chris
