Studi mendalam tentang Sriwijaya dari seorang pionir sekaligus ahli sejarah utamanya, OW Wolters. Kekayaan sumber dan keapikan retorika sejarah Wolters membuat buku ini akhirnya mampu tampil bukan sekadar sejarah tentang Sriwijaya, tetapi lebih luas lagi merupakan gambaran awal perdagangan laut Nusantara yang tumbuh pada abad III – VII. Termasuk pemaparan yang jembar ihwal apa saja faktor-faktor pendukung kebesarannya sehingga kemaharajaan maritim Nusantara itu jadi termasyhur di dunia.Adalah menarik semua kejayaan ekonomi niaga maritim Sriwijaya yang mendunia itu bukan oleh karena perdagangan rempah-rempah, seperti cengkih atau pala, melainkan berbagai jenis getah pohon yang memiliki kegunaan unik dalam pengobatan.
"Penulis buku ini, O.W. Wolters, selain mempelajari keruntuhan Sriwijaya yang dihubungkan dengan bagian awal sejarah Melayu, juga menghasilkan sebuah studi masa awal kemaharajaan maritim tersebut, suatu karya yang sangat berharga dari seorang pionir sekaligus ahli sejarah utama Sriwijaya." -Adrian B. Lapian, Nakhoda Sejarawan Maritim Asia Tenggara-
