Yet there is so much more that is wondrous and fascinating about these tiny bits of sea-encircled land.

Download The Andaman–Nicobar Accretionary Ridge Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
Rocks exposed across the hundreds of islands that belong to the 800 km long Andaman--Nicobar archipelago provide a condensed window into the active subduction zone that separates the India--Australia plate from the over-riding Burma--Sunda plate. Despite a strategic and seismically active location the Andaman-Nicobar ridge has seen comparatively little research. This Memoir provides the first detailed and comprehensive account of geological mapping and research across the island chain and adjacent ocean basins. Chapters examine models of Cenozoic rifting of the Andaman Sea and the regional tectonic and seismogenic framework. A detailed critical review of the Andaman–Nicobar stratigraphy, supported by new data, includes arc volcanism and a description of Barren Island, India’s only active volcano. Seismic history and hazards and the impacts of the 2004 earthquake and tsunami are also described. The volume ends with an examination of the region’s natural resources and hydrocarbon prospects.

"This gazetteer - the first of its kind - provides a comprehensive history of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands in the twentieth century, illustrating the economic and cultural integration of the islands into the Union of India after Independence." "The volume begins with a detailed account of the Islands' history till 1900. The Andamans are believed to have been visited by the celebrated Venetian explorer Marco Polo in the fourteenth century. However, it was not until the late 1800s that Lt Archibald Blair of the British East India Company mapped them and established an outpost bringing them firmly under the Company's control. After the 1857 uprising, India's colonial rulers built the cellular jail - Kala Pani - for political prisoners."--BOOK JACKET.
