Robert Drury's Journal and Other Studies is a book written by Arthur W. Secord. The book is a collection of historical studies that focus on the life and times of Robert Drury, an English sailor who was shipwrecked off the coast of Madagascar in the late 17th century. The centerpiece of the book is Drury's journal, which recounts his experiences as a captive of the Malagasy people, including his interactions with the local culture and his eventual escape. The book also includes other studies related to Drury's journal, such as analyses of the Malagasy language and culture, as well as broader historical studies of the Indian Ocean region during the colonial era. Overall, Robert Drury's Journal and Other Studies offers a unique glimpse into the life of a sailor and captive during a pivotal period of global history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
