Merveilles Malgaches

Madagascar at Random

[Malagasy Marvels]
Editions Delroisse (c.1985).
Hardcover Book with Dust Jacket

A curious book which is reversible: read from one end it is about butterflies of Madagascar; read from the other it is about the minerals and shells. Each of the three sections (butterflies, minerals, and shells) begins with a preface by one of the three authors, with versions in both English and French. Otherwise there is no text, save for the brief captions (in French only) on the 91 colour photographs.

Contents

  • Papillons [Butterflies]
  • Mineraux et Coqillages [Minerals and Shells]

Notes

  • Printed in Japan by Shumpo-Sha Photo Printing Co.
  • This edition was created for the bookshop "Tout Pour l'École" in Antananarivo, Madagascar.
  • Unpaginated.
