Seaways and Gatekeepers by Heather Sutherland
In this book, trade provides the integrating framework for local and regional histories that cover more than three hundred years, from the late sixteenth century to the beginning of the twentieth, when new technologies and changing markets helped lead to Western dominance.
“In this epic work, Heather Sutherland brings decades of scholarship to bear on her examination of three centuries of trade on the periphery of Asia…This is an attractive and well-laid-out book. Sutherland's scholarship has created a masterful work that will be appreciated by all interested in maritime Southeast Asia's colonial and pre-colonial past.” - Journal of the Malaysian Branch of the Royal Asiatic Society
Heather Sutherland is a retired professor, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam.
