Madagascar: Or Robert Drury�������s Journal During Fifteen Years������� Captivity On That Island is a historical book written by Robert Drury, an English sailor who was shipwrecked off the coast of Madagascar in 1701 and taken captive by the native people. The book is a first-hand account of Drury's experiences during his fifteen-year captivity on the island, including his interactions with the Malagasy people, their customs and traditions, and the challenges he faced in adapting to their way of life. Drury's journal also provides insights into the political and social landscape of Madagascar at that time, including the island's complex system of governance, its economy, and the role of religion in daily life. The book is an important historical document that offers a unique perspective on Madagascar's past and the lives of its people during the early 18th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
