Maloni is a valuable addition to the existing literature on Indian Ocean trade. The book focuses on the intra-Asian trade during the sixteenth to eighteenth centuries and explores its impact on the relationship between European powers in the region. The author argues that the British were successful in the Indian Ocean because they actively engaged in intra-Asian trade, unlike other European powers. The book also highlights the transformation of maritime Asia due to European incursions and discusses the importance of Indian ports in facilitating trade. However, some important ports like Cochin and Musalipattanam are left out of the discussion. Overall, the book provides a unique perspective on Indian Ocean trade and is a significant contribution to the maritime history of India. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Product Review src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y dt: @attributes: year: 2024 holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
