French adventurer Jean Laborde on stamps of Madagascar
Jean Laborde, a key figure in Madagascar history, is depicted on seven new stamps from the French colony. Born in Auch in 1806, he influenced native rulers to expand France’s reach on the island, which is more than five times Cuba’s size. Early in life he started a business in Bombay and in 1830 joined treasure hunting in the Indian Ocean with companions.
