One of the best books to read about Haitian culture is Mountains Beyond Mountains. It's about Dr Paul Farmer's life in Haiti and his vision for transforming the world. I've read it twice and listened to it once. Both the book and the audio version are available at your local libraries. It would be helpful to read before the trip takes place. You can learn a ton from this informative book.
This is a great book to read to get a feel of Haiti and what to kind of expect. Paul Farmer is an amazing man and the story of Haiti's history is inciteful. I remember reading this book 11 years ago on my first trip and it was memorable. I think that is why I have been going each year since. Blessings, Robert.
