First published in 1935, this book provides a comprehensive
overview of the 1934 Nepal-Bihar earthquake, giving a background to
the earthquake zone, describing the event itself and surveying the
ensuing devastation. The author also looks at the government's
actions and the response of India's other states as well as the
religious and social dimension to the reaction - exemplified by
Mahatma Gandhi. The book examines how the earthquake was compounded
by a severe flood that occurred shortly before, how preparations
for the monsoon season were made in an attempt to limit further
destruction and the subsequent recommendations for more earthquake
resistant urban planning.
