Description |
| |
|
| |
The present book attempts to unveil the fascinating story of Naval ship building in India in a simple & interesting narrative… It starts with defining ‘Naval Architecture’, bringing out the ‘art’ & the ‘science’ parts of it, digging briefly into its history in the Shipwright trade, highlighting the fact that the ‘Indian part’ of this history is still largely un-discovered, ‘hidden’ under the British suppression over the last hundred years of its rule! It then introduces the Naval Constructors, the designers & builders of warships, bringing out the difference between Naval Architects & Naval Constructors, in the process celebrating fifty years of formation of the Corps of Constructors in the Indian Navy. |

This is a fascinating book tracing the history of the Indian Navy. The pictures are beautiful, and the book is very detailed. As a former US Navy officer, I find it fascinating to get a look into another country's naval history. |
