Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

MoreLong description:
First published in 2015, Maritime Heritage of Andhra Pradesh and Odisha offers a detailed exploration of the maritime traditions of these coastal regions. Divided into two parts, Part I of the book covers the maritime heritage of coastal Andhra Pradesh, its physical environment, coastal and near-shore waters, ancient, medieval, colonial and modern ports, navigational hazards, modern coastal navigation landmarks, boat forms, seamen and their voyages and maritime trade emanating from these ports. The work relied extensively on archival research and field trips of over a decade.
Part II of the book covers the maritime heritage of Odisha based on field studies of the area in three seasons. Gopalpur, Puri, Konarak, and Baleshwar were visited during the field visits apart from Cuttack, Bhubaneswar, Sisupalgarh, Palur and the lake ferry port, Rambha. Many archaeological excavations were also visited to gather direct information. This book is a must read for scholars of Indian maritime history, history of Indian navigation, historical geography, and South Asian studies.
