Suggestions on the Improvement of Silk Reeling in Bengal Based on a Study of the Systems Prevailing

"Suggestions on the Improvement of Silk Reeling in Bengal" by Nitya Gopal Mukerji, originally published in 1906, offers a detailed exploration of silk production techniques in early 20th-century India. Mukerji leverages comparative analysis, drawing from the established silk reeling systems in Kashmir and Bangalore to propose enhancements for the Bengal silk industry. This historical work provides insights into the challenges and opportunities present in the Indian silk trade during the British colonial period. It serves as a valuable resource for understanding the technological and economic aspects of sericulture and its regional variations within India. The book's enduring relevance lies in its meticulous documentation of traditional practices and its focus on improving industrial processes.
