Summary: "This little book is an attempt, by one who is not a specialist in economic history, to meet a need, hithero ignored by specialists, for a short sketch of the economic development of Europe as a whole, considered, that is, an an area which experienced a fairly uniform evolution, which has come under the same general influences, of which the same processes of production have tended to dominate, while the same machinery of exchanges has had full sway. Some sections of economic histories have indeed done this for certain periods, but usually on a scale that makes the work available to only the advanced student." -- preface.
