Floating Pearls in the Arabian Sea: Lakshadweep

 
Sasmita S. Akhtar (Author) Shamim Akhtar (Author)
Synopsis This book is a sincere attempt to essay the basic information about the distant land of Lakshadweep and its lesser known people.  The authors have tried to touch upon every important arena affecting the life and society of the islanders.  The intention was not to say it all but rather to say it right.  The text and the images are woven together to ensure better understanding.  Lakshadweep, lying in the Arabian Sea, is valued as anindispensable tourist destination, but more importantly it is a land of distinct people with a distinctive culture.  The images in this book were taken by Shamim Akhtar during his posting between 1998 to 2000, and several other visits after that.
