This book is an economic analysis of the "Kipper und Wipper"
inflation of 1619-23, the most serious German inflation before the
hyperinflation following World War I, with a particular focus on
how it affected people's lives and behavior. The volume features
full-page reproductions of rare contemporary broadsheets--early
forerunners of the modern newspaper--with striking illustrations
and engaging texts. Published here in their entirety and for the
first time in superb English translation, they are a unique window
on society at the time and give a voice to the people who were
actually devastated by the inflation.
