Only illustration other than the front cover is a b/w map of the Andaman Islands. "For many people, the Andaman Islands exist mostly in the imagination. For David Tomory, the fascination began with a childhood reading of "The Sign of Four." He set out to explore the real and imagined islands. Within living memory it had been a place of horror, Kalapani, the Black Water from which prisoners could not escape. The Cellular Jail was still there, slowly being reclaimed by the jungle, but the Adamanese tribes - the inspiration for Conan Doyle's story - have been 'protected' to the point of extinction". "...An exemplary historical travelogue, witty, earthy and entertaining, wearing its impressive research lightly... - Mike Jay, 'Fortean Times', January 2004". See Images. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall .
