Areda, the King, the Governor of Maritus

King redama died at 36, just as the missionaries and everything were just getting going. His widow is queen ranivolona, who was apprehensive about foreign influence in her kingdom. She udiated the treaties that radama had signed with britain. The king's life style would have brought a gleam of envy to the eyes of any arabian sheikh. And if you're wondering when this book was published, it was two thousand and five o my good as well.
