"Throughout the book, Officer is a happy warrior whose enthusiasm for history and economics is infectious. ... it should be read by anybody interested in PPP or in U.S and British monetary history. Most certainly, it should be read by those who use the long-run data series he creates. Outside of these areas it can be read with pleasure by those of us who enjoy seeing a master craftsman at work." (John Devereux, EH Net, eh.net, July, 2023)
