"This compact colume provides the most complete study of indigenous vessels of Indonesia yet undertaken. Undoubtably, it will remain the definitve study of the prahu for years to come."--Journal of the American Oriental Society (on the first edition).
Indonesian tradition is deeply entwined with the prahu, whose beauty, speed, and strength are the pride of all who sail it. Yet little is known about this marvellous vessel except to the master craftsmen who make it. This second edition of The Prahu is an expanded guide to the prahu in all its incarnations, featuring some 30 new line drawings.
