About this book

This study in economic history focuses on the commercial relations and monetary policies of England, Burgundy, and Flanders in medieval times. Professor Munro shows how princes in continental Europe employed coinage debasements far more often as ad hoc fiscal measures to meet their ever-growing need for revenue.
