| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc | Gódávari by F.R. Hemingway is an authoritative and meticulously compiled district gazetteer that provides an exhaustive account of the Godavari District in the Madras Presidency during the early 20th century. As a work of colonial administration and scholarship, it systematically documents virtually every aspect of the region, from its geographical features and natural resources to its rich historical trajectory, demographic profile, and socio-economic life.<br/><br/>The book delves into the ancient political history of the Godavari region, detailing the rise and fall of various empires and local dynasties that shaped its past. It offers insights into the composition of the population, including their customs, languages, and religious practices. A significant portion is dedicated to the economic backbone of the district: agriculture and the pioneering irrigation systems (particularly the Godavari anicut) that transformed the delta into a fertile agricultural hub.<br/><br/>Beyond physical and economic descriptions, Hemingway also covers the district's administration, including land revenue systems, public health, education, and means of communication. While serving as an essential administrative reference for the British government, "Gódávari" also stands as a crucial historical document and a valuable resource for researchers, historians, and anyone interested in the colonial history, geography, and socio-economic conditions of this significant region in South India. It captures a snapshot of the district at a pivotal time, blending objective data with observations of the era. |
