India and the Indian Ocean, 1500-1800
Ashin Das Gupta, Michael Naylor Pearson editors
This collection of essays surveys the history of maritime India from 1500 to 1800, focusing on trade and economic history as well as on the activities of European merchants and local traders. It convincingly argues that even though the Europeans often traversed the Indian Ocean to trade, their presence was not crucial to India's economic stability.
