Is anyone interested in this page enough to improve the section on his military service and the secret treaty with Toussaint? I honestly had never heard of Maitland until I was reading The Era of Federalism (Stanley Elkins and Eric McKitrick, Oxford University Press, 1995, ISBN-10: 019509381X, ISBN-13: 978-0195093810) and came upon their section on how it tied into US-French maritime conflict. I also saw the illustration with a caption referring to the secret treaty, but no text on the page about the even whatsoever. I more or less inserted a quick block quote from the Elkins-McKitrick book as a marker, hoping that someone who cares more about this topic might feel provoked. The little I know about his career in Domingue is through the lens of how it impacted the US-French maritime conflict. Surely someone else can do better than I?

There's a new bio of Toussaint L'Ouverture out. Perhaps it can add detail. Frank Lynch (talk)
This article is a shining example of why teachers say "don't trust Wikipedia." In this section we see "Maitland was commissioned into the Edinburgh Light Horse, shortly after his birth." Shortly after his birth. Anyone care about this page enough to question this? Frank Lynch (talk)
