    Extractions: For the last 80 million years, the island of Madagascar has floated along in splendid isolation, separated from the rest of the world by miles of ocean, with only the rarest of storm-tossed creatures and plants able to reach its shores alive. Those that made it, though, were winners of the evolutionary lottery as the castaways spun off phenomenal numbers of new species, filling the once lonely island and turning it into one of the most biologically significant places on earth. Now in a new book, "The Natural History of Madagascar" , researchers have captured the recent explosion of scientific knowledge about the unique organisms of this rugged island. But most of its secrets have yet to be revealed. In 1,700 pages, the book moves from the broad brush strokes of the island's geological history to detailed accounts of its organisms, including its famous aye-aye lemurs, its fantastical baobab trees and its 12-foot-tall elephant bird (now extinct as so many other island species soon will be, experts fear). The elephant bird is said to have inspired the mythical rokh bird of Sinbad's voyage.

    http://books.cambridge.org/0521839351.htm
    
    Extractions: The first comprehensive economic history of pre-colonial Madagascar, this study examines the island’s role from 1750 to 1895 in the context of a burgeoning international economy and the rise of modern European imperialism. Challenging conventional portrayals of nineteenth-century Madagascar as a unified and progressive kingdom, this study reveals that the Merina of the Central Highlands attempted to found an island empire and through the exploitation of its human and natural resources build the economic and military might to challenge British and French pretensions in the region. Ultimately, the Merina failed due to imperial forced labour policies and natural disasters, although by 1890, Madagascar was firmly integrated into a regional trade network stretching from South Africa to India and Britain acknowledged French claims to Madagascar. France took 13 years to conquer Madagascar, finally succeeding only due to the internal collapse of Merina power. Cambridge University Press 2004.
