‘Fouquet undertakes a heroic effort to organize and present data on energy prices and usage since the 14th century. He then uses this data as the foundation for a narrative and analysis of changes in energy usage over the long run. . . the sifting and analysis of so many different sources to provide a coherent account will prove useful to those seeking an overview of this important topic, or for those seeking a point of entry to the study of more specific topics. Highly recommended.’
– J.L. Rosenbloom, Choice
