Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a detailed historical review of silk, the 'queen of textiles', from its origins to the rise of the Indian silk industry. The author, a prominent advocate for the revival and development of Indian sericulture, offers a wide-ranging exploration of the taxonomy, history, production, and utilization of silk in India. The book also features a comprehensive collection of photographs and illustrations depicting the Indian Silk industry, including images of moths, cocoons, fabrics, and embroidery, as well as a catalogue of Indian silkworms and cocoons. The author asserts that India is uniquely positioned to become a global leader in the production of high-quality silk, echoing the deep interest in India's silk trade during the late 19th century, when the book was originally published. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and current state of the Indian silk industry, with a focus on historical and economic development. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
