Volume 12 of the series "Compagnie d'Elite". A few years after the seizure of Indochina and the Tonkin campaign, and only three years after the conquest of Dahomey, the Madagascar expedition of 1895 joins a series of offensive actions reflecting the French government's desire for colonial expansion and a particularly dynamic policy in this regard, especially under the initial impetus of Jules Ferry. Organisation, uniforming and the military operations of the French campaign in Madagascar 1895-1896 form the core themes of this work. Very many unpublished illustrations and photographs from the period.
