History of Great Nicobar Island The Ascent
This book is all about the incredible last point of India, Great Nicobar. It was the ex-servicemen from Punjab who first inhabited in the Great Nicobar Island on 23.4.1969 AD and this paved way from other states for settlement in Great Nicobar Island. Induction of ex-servicemen settlers brought life into the Great Nicobar Island. Their struggle and sacrifice in developing this island, braving the severe weather conditions and non-availability of adequate medical facilities brought Great Nicobar Island into the limelight. The dedication, struggle and sacrifice shown by all Ex-servicemen of Great Nicobar Island is beyond comparison and put Great Nicobar Island on the map of progress. This encouraged me to write about “Induction of Ex-servicemen settlers to Great Nicobar Island”
The Andaman and Nicobar Islands in the Twentieth Century
"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.
