This is an extensive update of the author's similar 1977 book. A catalog of some 800 cave and karst features follows a collection of articles on caving history, geology, and biology, some by seven other contributors. The catalog gives the location of each cave, and there are hundreds of cave maps (some foldouts), as well as lists of long and deep caves and 16 pages of color plates.

Autorenporträt
Alan G. Fincham is Professor of Biochemistry, University of South California, Los Angeles. He has been exploring caves since his early teens in England. While working as lecturer in biochemistry at the University of the West Indies, Fincham became an active organizer of the Jamaica Caving Club. Recognizing the need to catalogue the numerous caves of the island, he published the first edition of Jamaica Underground in 1977 through the Geological Society of Jamaica.
