Among The Menabe: Or Thirteen Months On The West Coast Of Madagascar is a travelogue written by George Herbert Smith, first published in 1896.

Smith provides a detailed account of the local people, their customs, and traditions. He describes the landscape, wildlife, and the challenges of living in a remote and often inhospitable environment. The author also delves into the history of the region, including the impact of French colonization and the slave trade on the local population.Throughout the book, Smith provides insights into the daily life of the Menabe people, including their agricultural practices, religious beliefs, and social hierarchy. He also discusses his interactions with various local leaders and the challenges of navigating cultural differences.Overall, Among The Menabe offers a fascinating glimpse into a little-known region of Madagascar and provides valuable insights into the complexities of cross-cultural communication and understanding.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
