i am from mumbai-india. presently i am at read and gain knowledge phase. i will read the construction reports and may ask few doubts before really starting anything of worth.
1) in the discussions i was reading--some Greek books were referred for reading, such as
Greek Traditional Shipbuilding ----The Trechantiri in Greek Naval Craft --The Greek Sailing Boats 2nd Century , are these books available in English language? alternatively if ebook copies of these books are available then i can read them with the help of google translate.

Hello Pravin and welcome to our forum.
Let’s take it one by one.
The first book you're mentioning is based on the Thesis of the author and can be found either in http://ethos.bl.uk/OrderDetails.do?uin= ... hos.316164 or at http://books.google.gr/books/about/Vern ... edir_esc=y
The next two books and as far we know, were never translated in other languages nor to say that are out of print even in Greek language.
Both of them were containing only a few last pages in English language describing in a synopsis form (a summary) some of the chapters in Greek.
However, we believe that most of your queries on what you have in mind, should be easily answered by the first book…
Best regards
