Written by Herbert Heaton, Professor of Economic History at the University of Minnesota, this landmark revised edition chronicles the economic forces that drove European civilisation across centuries — from feudal agrarian systems and merchant guilds to the rise of capitalism and international markets. Heaton's command of primary sources and his clarity of argument make this a foundational text for anyone seeking to understand the material conditions that shaped European society.\n\nRigorous yet accessible, Heaton illustrates how economic structures are inseparable from political power, social organisation, and cultural change, weaving together threads of labour, land, capital, and trade into a coherent and compelling narrative. His analysis argues that no understanding of European history is complete without grappling with its economic underpinnings — a thesis as relevant today as when this edition was first published. Whether you are a student, scholar, or curious reader, this definitive work will leave you questioning which forces truly drive the course of history.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50609713774811,"sku":"2026100010826-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/a0302c2e-af2b-4b88-bc2b-147eaeb2d546.png?v=1791764806","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100010826-secondhand-economic-history-of-europe","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
