James saw Toussaint’s psychology, not just Europe, as limiting his revolution.

Evidence

But James was quite aware that there was much that had been within Toussaint’s range and much that he had botched. He seemed to sense that for all the importance that might be rightly placed on the counterrevolution in Europe and for all the genius that could be ascribed to Toussaint in the early periods of the revolution, there was still something that was terribly wrong in the man’s make-up. Indeed, James admitted, Haitian leaders of much narrower experience and education than Toussaint would overcome difficulties that his psychology could not confront. — Cedric J.
