Price tags are never just price tags. They are clues to power, scarcity, and everyday life after the Industrial Revolution. Numbers can tell their story. In History of Prices Since the Year 1850, statistician Michael G. Mulhall assembles a rigorous price data compendium spanning key goods and services across the modern world, tracing commodity price trends as markets expanded, railways tightened supply chains, and crises rippled through trade. Built as an economic history reference and historical statistics handbook, it brings together comparable tables that help you see inflation and price indexes in motion rather than in theory. Alongside prices, Mulhall tracks wages and cost of living, offering a grounded view of what prosperity or hardship meant for households, employers, and governments. For the researcher reference guide, the detail supports quick checks and careful argument; for an economics student resource, it sharpens intuition about cycles, shocks, and long-run change. It suits the curious browser as much as the dedicated analyst. Keep it near your desk always. Readers drawn to nineteenth century prices and the Victorian era economy will find an indispensable starting point for any historical price index study. First issued in the age when statistics began to shape policy, this is one of the economic history classics that helped define how modern economic measurement is done. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike.
