ABSTRACT
Chapters 10–12 share three common properties. First, they fall within the rubric of monetary history. Second, they involve data contributions, in the form of the development of new time series for the historical experience under consideration. Third, they make use of these series to consider issues for which a quantitative approach provides insights, but for which the existing literature leaves room for improvement. Some features of the historical experiences are omitted or discussed only tangentially in the chapters. These features are given their due here – chapter by chapter, because the nature of the limitations differs in the chapters. Most of the addenda pertain to Chapter 10.
