    A unique exploration of Indian cartography’s past and present. An enriching journey through India’s geographical knowledge.

  2. Tanishq Gupta

    Fascinating! I learned so much about ancient Indian mapping techniques. A very informative read, though a bit dense in places. I would like to read similar books.

  3. Suryadev Singh Choudhary

    A decent overview, but I wish there was more focus on specific mapmakers. Still, a good starting point for research. I am interested to read more on this topic.

  4. Ankush Kumar Singh

    A detailed and comprehensive look at Indian cartography. Perhaps too detailed for a casual reader. I would recommend it for a library to store.

  5. Priyanka Rathore

    A solid introduction to the subject. I particularly enjoyed learning about the ancient traditions. Awesome read and highly recommended.

  6. Nishant Kumar

    The book was well-written and easy to understand. I’m not sure I’d read it again, but I will use it as a reference in the future.

  7. Kartik Dhaka

    I enjoyed the sections on cultural influences, but the modern surveying parts were a bit dry. Overall, worth reading. This book is worth every penny.

    A comprehensive and in-depth study of the cartography that existed in India. Perfect for students. A good reference book.

    Excellent resource for anyone studying cartography or Indian history. Very thorough and well-researched. A must read book for History student.

  10. Josyula V V S M Raghavendra Kasyap

    The book provides a good history, but some of the language is difficult to follow for a beginner. I appreciate that the book includes a brief history of mapmaking.

  11. Harsh Mewara

    This book opened my eyes to a whole new world of historical geography! A surprisingly engaging read. Great book to learn about Indian cartography.

  12. Ayush Jain

    Interesting book, but felt like it jumped around in time a bit too much. Needed better editing. Book is too complex to understand in one read.

  13. Aman Yadav

    It is very informative about the history of maps in India and how they evolved! The book is engaging and you would like to read till the end.

  14. Shifa Islam

    Some sections are engaging and others felt like a chore. Overall, a good read for those interested. Should be available in public libraries.

  15. Somya

    While informative, the book could benefit from more illustrations and visual aids. Text heavy book to keep the reader entertain and engage.
