Another tome on economic history

There seems to be a surge of interest in economic history. After the works by Jared Diamond and Greg Clark (see 7 August and 10 August posts), and the provisional text on growth by Daron Acemoglu (see 6 October post), another draft work has appeared on the internet. Meir Kohn, professor of economics at Dartmouth College in New Hampshire, has put most of his The Origins of Western Economic Success in PDF format on his homepage.
