Excerpts  35 1988 [During a lecture at Berkeley, CA] The Malagasy people are the prototype of what the human race should be.
36 1997 p. 181 A large selection of maps (and also old photo prints) can be bought at the Institut National de Géodésie et Cartographie (its long Malagasy name is shortened toFTM), Lalana Dama-Ntsoha, Ambanidia (tel: 229-35). Hours 8.30 to 12.00, 14.00 to 18.00. They do a series of 12 maps, scale 1:500,000 covering each region of Madagascar. These are most inviting, but sadly no longer completely accurate, especially in their concept of a village, which may turn out to be one hut which fell down a generation ago. There are also excellent maps of Nosy Be and Sainte Marie. The staff are extremely pleasant and helpful. The more popular maps can be bought in bookshops.
