The Ships of Vivekananda

In this book, the author, Sri Somenath Mukherjee, a researcher on the life of Swami Vivekananda, has presented a broad canvas wherein the history, akin to biography, of all the eleven ships which took the Swami around the seven seas during his two Western visits are threaded together with the sequence of events in his life in between those voyages. Besides, in the Epilogue, the author has convincingly documented the enormous impact of the Swami on the stirring sea voyage movement in the last decade of the nineteenth century.
