Working Americans 1880-1999: The Upper Class, Vol. 3
Analysis very good, all but the last chapter is based on reasonably good statistical inference and empirical logic. However, the premise of the book to show that the Dutch Republic was: (1) a 'modern economy' in a pre-modern economy world, and (2) was the first to become a 'modern economy', are not very convincing. The tag-line is more worthy of note and more credible to the picture that is painted through the highly detailed analysis.
