    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.
